Great Textbook January 8, 2008 sophius This book is the best I have ever had for a language course. It has great summaries and vocab lists at the end of each chapter for easy reference. the questions are good, each set has a sample question and answer so that you can understand what to do.

The books was in perfect conditions, but it did not come with the computer Key. I had alot of trouble because of that.
Still One of the Most Useful Texts Available June 15, 2006 M. Salahuddin (NY) This earlier edition is still, I would say, one of the most useful texts available in this area.
Review of Chez Nous October 20, 1998 Daniel Michalski (daniel.michalski@dora.state.co.us) (Colorado) 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
I find that this first-year college level French text to be an adequate introduction to the language. I expecially appreciate the wide-array of authentic examples of francophone culture presented throughout the text. It is through these examples, that the student is able to apply to concepts and vocabulary in everyday situations. My only complaint with the book is the fact that in several of the short essays, many words are introduced but without any translations either in the essay or the glossary. Many times this is frustrating to students. However, the cassette tapes that accompany the text are a beneficial tool to the mastery of proper pronunciation.
