The book is divided up into 3 sections:
Alphabetical (Dictionary) Section (pages 1 - 49)
Category Section (pages 50 - 53)
Vocabulary Tips (page 54)
ALPHABETICAL (DICTIONARY SECTION):
Alphabetically listed, the book contains a French word in bold type, whether it is masculine/feminine/plural (or neither), the English meaning and then two sentences: the first being an example in French of how the word could be used and the second is it's English meaning.
E.g.
Couverture f. blanket J'aurai besoin d'une couverture de laine parce qu'il fait froid la nuit. I shall need a wool blanket because it is cold at night.
Poli polite Les enfants doivent toujours etre polis avec les grandes personnes en France. Children must always be polite to older people in France.
Although I am unable to put in the different styles of text e.g. bold, the French word is bold and the French sentence is in italics which helps when reading the book or it would seem like a endless page of text.
As you might have guessed from the title of the book, there are 1001 of these French words in the book - each in the same style as mentioned above. Now from a student's perspective or those who may be looking for a specific word, this is not a book which is the easiest to use as reference. While there are over a thousand words, these are only common words so the majority of words that I would normally need a dictionary to find a translation for are not there.
