I am a native speaker and bought this for my son. It is well structured and surprisingly comprehensive. Well done, highly recommended.

Engaging and fun, with a few flaws
Jun 25 2005
By P. CUNNINGHAM
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Like all DK Eyewitness travel books this one is packed with nice photographs to illustrate the pages and make it fun to read. I was looking for a review book as well as an introductory guide for my wife that would be more interesting than a plain text phrasebook, and it qualifies well.
The flaw that I have noted, (and is presumably corrected if you have the version with the 2 CDs), is that the pronunciation guides (phonetic examples) are written using UK English, rather than American English. So "raucher" (smoking) is given as "row-kher". Because we pronounce "row" differently from the English (rhymes with cow), this is a problem. I have not seen many cases of this, but there may be others.
Four stars.
