Russian Through Propaganda, Book 2 Mark R Pettus

This second volume in the Russian Through Propaganda series provides a second semester's worth of intensive college-level Russian language learning. It presents all plural forms of noun and adjective case endings, introduces basic verbs of conveyance and basic prefixed forms, deals extensively with numbers and time expressions, and introduces comparative forms. It concludes with two special chapters dedicated to practical everyday conversation (for those heading to Russia), and an introduction to unadapted Russian poetry and prose from the Soviet era. Like Book 1, it is richly illustrated with Soviet propaganda posters whose slogans highlight each lesson's grammar. It is supplemented with a learner's Russian-English dictionary, an answer key, and useful grammar tables for reference. This new series of Russian language textbooks will continue with Books 3 and 4, entitled "Russian Through Poems and Paintings."
