Each chapter is divided into two sections. 1. In English: grammar is explained as it relates to English, anticipating concepts necessary for French. 2. In French: grammar is explained as it relates to French, with examples and explanations of the rules applied. Points out similarities, differences, and alerts students to pitfalls.

Correlations to popular 1st year college French textbooks indicating the pages to be read in preparation for each lesson. Part of the O&H Study Guide series for students of foreign languages.
