F Victor Dickens, lawyer, doctor, botanist and translator of Japanese literature, noted in 1905, that neither Weintz’ Japanese Self-Taught, nor his Hossfeld Japanese Grammar was written in the Hossfeld Method. But otherwise were “unexceptionable, as far as they go, and the phrases they contain are correct and useful”.
