Other features include an additional 2,000 key words, and useful tourist aids-city maps, travel tips, and food and shopping guides. Japanese at a Glance makes an ideal travel companion for the English-speaking visitor to Japan. The book is also available with an approximately 90-minute-long audio tape and script booklet as part of Barron's very popular Now You're Talking in No Time! language-learning series.
