I first started to work on my first Japanese textbook in 2007. It’s finally available here. The book is designed for the Beginner and Japanese Hiragana and Katakana are not included in the book, but it will be available in the second edition.
If you are new to Japanese language and culture, this book will certainly help you master the language. If you are interested in getting this book, please make a payment via paypal and I will send you an electronic copy within the next 24 hours.
