Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Old-fashioned in some regards
Review: Overall good, but there are some real 20th century anachronisms in this book. "Bring me an ashtray," "I wish to buy a hat," "How many pesos is that," "I would like to send a cablegram," etc. Also seems more geared for south America and not as much for Spain, where I am headed. Some updates are needed but as I said, overall good and I wish I had the time to actually learn Spanish but I didn't.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Indispensable & compact. And unbelievably, under a dollar!
Review: This book was indispensable and it fit right in my backpack. I used this book, the Menu-Master for Spain and the Chile guide by Youman and Estep. These three were all I needed for two weeks in Chile.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Easy Spanish Phrase Book is Invaluable
Review: This book was invaluable on my recent family vacation to Zihuatanejo, Mexico! Spanish phrases are categorized according to the situation in which you will need them; for example, restaurants, banks, stores, post offices, etc. The pronunication keys were great. We ordered food, found an Internet cafe and a bank, and were able to get more toilet paper from the non-English-speaking hotel desk clerk at 10:30 p.m. I don't know what we would have done without it!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Over rated by certain reviewers....
Review: Well, it is still a good book, but I could see a few improvements that could make things better.

The book lists phrases, yes, phrases...nothing more.

For example, after you say, what time do you open, in Spanish, you will have to search next thing to say digging entire book.

Again, it only lists simple phrases by the category.

I'm a bit disappointed by the five star rating......

Review: You can't beat this book - for the price and the small, yet concise and relevant content. Learn how to tell time, order food, go through customs, as well as greetings and social conversations just to name a few. Especially helpful are the pronunciation guides listed below each phrase. Muy bueno for the traveler or beginner.
