It features reading selections, vocabulary lists, glossaries, an accompanying DVD, and brief grammar explanations with cross-reference to more detailed grammar chapters.

This textbook is the most grammatically and culturally accurate of any BCS materials availableIt is the best adapted to the diverse needs of my students, who often combine Croatian heritage, Bosnian contacts, and Serbian preoccupations in the same classroom."—Wayles Browne, Cornell University “Twenty lessons, offering a comprehensive and, dare one say it, ‘unifying’ picture of the fragmentation which is still underway in the former Yugoslavia. . . . There are masses of examples, all fully glossed and explained, the whole both rigorously serious and pedagogically admirable.”—Forum for Modern Language Studies “The best BCS course materials generally available to English-speaking learners.”—Danko Šipka, Canadian Slavonic Papers
