Ellen Hartsfield taught French for 15 years at Fort Lewis College in Durango, Colorado. After years of using a range of traditional textbooks in the classroom, she followed her students' repeated requests that she write her own book because they found the supplemental materials she created much more useful and meaningful than the approach employed by the typical textbook. It is the author's hope that students of all ages will enjoy learning French with this method.
