| Publisher: | Barron's |
| ISBN: | 0-8120-4299-9 |

| Publisher: | John Wiley & Sons |
| ISBN: | 0-47101-707-8 |

| Author: | Mischa Fayer |
| Publisher: | National Textbook Company |
| ISBN: | 0-84424-231-4 |
| Comments: | This is the textbook I used when learning Russian. Read the review at amazon.com before you buy; I agree with most the reviewer’s comments. I thought the book was great, but I had a great teacher while I was using it. If you're studying on your own, this book may not be ideal. |
| Authors: | Pekhlivanova, Kira I., and Lebedeva, Marina N. |
| Publisher: | Firbird Publications |
| ISBN: | 0-82853-735-6 |
| Comments: | Another book for the serious student of Russian. It is written in Russian, but the wonderful illustrations and the clarity of presentation make it easily accessible to even intermediate-level students. A fantastic reference book which would also make a superb adjunct textbook in a classroom situation. |
