Review Optimized for the MobiPocket Reader, this is a very special edition of Robert Barr's "A Rock in the Baltic." The text of the book is completely in English. If you click on one of the words in the text, a convenient pop-up window appears with a customized Italian thesaurus for that word, which includes a variety of Italian translations that come from Webster's Online Dictionary (www.websters-online-dictionary.org). Running throughout the text, uncommon English words are highlighted in blue that are likely to be found in examinations in English Language Programs (ELP), English as a Foreign Language (EFL) programs, or in English as a Second Language Programs (ESL). The highlighted vocabulary words are also likely to be found in foreign service, translation certification, Advanced Placement- (AP-), TOEFL-, TOEIC-, SAT-, PSAT-, GMAT-, LSAT-, GRE-, or similar examinations.

Product Description Robert Barr's "A Rock in the Baltic" is a classic work read by book lovers, students and scholars. This is a special edition which exposes readers to a variety of English phrases and terminology from this genre. While the text is in English, the "click and translate" thesaurus, in Italian, is a perfect tool for Italian speakers who need to enjoy this English-language classic, and also learn English words. If you are a non-English speaker, you can use this version to help you improve your vocabulary in preparation of English-language tests. While designed for Italian speakers wishing to learn English, English-speakers wanting to pick up Italian vocabulary may also find the Italian thesaurus feature of interest (the text is entirely in English, only the pop-up thesaurus is in Italian).
