Rating: - not good as a learning tool
This book is not good as a learning tool, it only gives 1 or 2 words of translation per page.
Rating: - Disappointed
I bought this book because it purported to define the "tough" words. I found that most of the defined words were ones I already knew, while a large number of the "tough" words went unnoticed. For instance: on the first page, "puissant" is defined, while "palefreniers" is not; page one of chapter 6 has 9 words defined (most were cognates) but no clue is given as to what the "auto-da-fe" mentioned on the same page might be.

Rating: - Great book, the vocabulary builder is usefull
I liked this vocabulary builder idea more than the dual language books.
When reading the dual language books, i find myself reading every line translated, this one, even i if don't completely understand everything
it is much more fun to read. and you get to learn the important words that you don't know cause on other side there is like a small dicto for more difficult words.
also the book is very interesting.
