I know this book is quite popular. Though it is substantially deep in grammar analysis, it has certain disadvantages, and the main one is that the texts and exercises in first lessons are composed by the author, and not taken from the Tanach as Kelley did. I also find explanations rather difficult to understand sometimes; Lambdin seems to sink in unnecessary details ;) Truely yours, -- Yitzik
