Hugo French in 3 Months

Having had some success with Hugo German in 3 months, a month before moving to Geneva I bought the French version of the book. It's somewhat different in format... clearly the authors are not constrained by the publisher name. Nonetheless I found it just as helpful. I finished reading it in two months, that is, a month after arriving in Geneva. I managed to get by in a few shops etc, although looking back at what I remember saying I'm embarrassed at how badly I phrased and pronounced things.

Even after two terms of classes, there were still things in that book which we had not covered. It's therefore not only an excellent book for beginners but also a good reference book later on when I need to remind myself just how something works.
