The Reading Real Russian book you mentioned is available on amazon, and the used books have very reasonable prices compared to some of the other language books of this method. I've already ordered a copy for myself.

Sadly Amazon charges some $20 for getting any book into The Old World, so I'd rather find a European store that would sell something. Alas, it's not easy.

Any of the old (60's and before) TY edition books would be good for learning to read,
because they go into 1 grammar topic at a time, have translation/version exercises then start adding small texts. 3 persons have voted this message useful | ||||||

I found a bunch of books today, picked them up at the library. They are called "Better Reading" and they have books for French, Italian and Spanish from what I gather. I'll be posting thoughts on them.

Those are the books I told you about. I haven't tried any of them, so I'm looking forward to seeing your reviews. 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

Both amazon.fr and amazon.co.uk deliver elsewhere in Europe. At amazon.co.uk you would pay 5.98GBP ( see here) and at amazon.fr you pay 10 euros for delivery of one book (see here). With today's currency rates both options seem cheaper than amazon.com. 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

It doesn't matter what it says in the domain if the book is in the United States :D I'll find something though. 1 person has voted this message useful |
