Apart from phrases, the book contains practical advice, such as the most convenient itineraries information on customs regulations, recommendation of hotels and restaurants, lists of places for sightseeing and entertainment, In September 2018, an exhibition Language Learning through the Ages was on display at the Taylor Institution Library in Oxford. In the section on Conversation books, one could observe J.H.Wisdom’s The Briton in Russia, published by Leopold B. Hill in 1915.
