I disagree with the poor rating given by a reader that complained about the lack of Cyrillic ...

An Excellent Reference
A friend showed me this book when I was in Yekaterinburg, Russia. I flipped through it, and the first thing that came into my mind was that this book was probably a cute collection of homely archaic sayings which nobody really uses. There was a Russian girl standing next to me, so I tried a ...

Christopher Froehlich
Alpha, 2004
Learn the Cyrillic Alphabet and Proceed!
