Summary

The best way to bring the grammar of a language to life is by experiencing it in context, as it is actually used by native speakers and writers. Spanish Grammar in Context presents authentic texts from newspapers and magazines from across the Spanish-speaking world and uses them as the starting point for the illustration and explanation of key areas of Spanish grammar, particularly those that cause difficulties for speakers of English. Whether you are an intermediate or an advanced student of Spanish, you'll find Spanish Grammar in Context invaluable for individual or classroom learning. Book jacket.
