Pretty long link, I know.
Here is what it says about the book: This book, which has evolved from my experience of teaching Japanese to English-speaking students, is intended for both those who desire to learn basic Japanese and those who wish to pursue the study of the language at a more advanced level.
The first part of the book, printed in the conventional Western style, consists of a series of brief lessons, each containing: (A) vocabulary; (B) selected examples; (C) grammatical analysis; (D) conversational expressions. This section is concluded by a chapter on functional Japanese grammar, which supplements the lessons with a summary of other essential points of grammar.
Part Two, printed in the traditional Japanese manner (that is, starting from the back of the book), introduces the student to more advanced aspects of the language through a number of selected passages, each accompanied by a vocabulary and a section on construction patterns.
