A complete guide to conjugating French verbs, one of the most difficult areas of study for anyone learning French. The book follows a simple system, with an index of 12,000 French verbs at the back linking to the various patterns of conjugation that the verbs follow.
The cover is mainly tonal across blue and green with words picked out in different colours, but a high contrast pink used for the name, while the publisher Hurtubis HMH is overprinted to create a rich midnight blue along the base.
This new edition (same design) followed a previously published version issued in 1972.
