The previous review from customer 'Prof K' does a great disservice to this gem of a machzor. Why he felt the need to rate the book so poorly simply because HE messed up and bought the wrong book for his needs is beyond me. Perhaps next time the good professor will look at a book's title before buying it next time, rather than just irresponsibly clicking away on .com!If you have a difficult time reading Hebrew quickly enough to keep up at High Holiday Rosh ha-Shannah services, then this is the machzor for you! Every Hebrew word is transliterated (e.g., you see "Baruch atah..." next to the associated Hebrew letters) and translated (e.g., "Blessed art thou..." centered under the transliteration and Hebrew).The text is clear, organized, and a traditional typeface. And as a bonus, you get insightful commentary on almost every page, so you truly understand what you're saying and why.Because this is ArtScroll, you can feel confident that everything is not only technically and typographically correct, but also halachically (legally) correct. There is no proselytizing, nor any demeaning discussions anywhere in the book. It is pure information - the ultimate prayer book and guide to Rosh ha-Shannah.Make sure to also get the Transliterated Linear Machzor for Yom Kippur so you're prepared for both High Holiday services! This can be used for Reform, Conservative, and Orthodox services, but probably not for Reconstructionist (because it doesn't include all their preferred gender modifications like including "Sarah, Rachael, and Leah" every time "Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob" are mentioned).
I sent this book back, and got a prompt refund -- no complaints there. The reason I sent it back is that it turned out to be a transliterated version, i.e. Hebrew on the right, and on the left one line of translation, one line of Hebrew transliterated into English, next line of translation etc. That is not what I wanted.Otherwise the text was up to Artscroll standards, although the lettering was a tad less clear than that of my Artscroll edition of Tanach.
Very good product
