I'd agree with you Sukhbir on H. C. Verma's book but not 100%, Firstly, even if mostly its not original, you would get Benefit studying it ( everything at one place). Secondly there are few topics (e.g collision or when two blocks with spring collide) where H.C. Verma explains much better then any of the other books. Thirdly, it does has problems ranging from very simple ( plug and chug) to very sophisticated ( some even harder then Irodov's) and it has multiple choice questions ( some of them are very good).
I would rather say that Resnick/Halliday/Walker have much tougher questions that Verma.

What sort of physics background would you need to benefit from this book? Would a freshman level do?

Yes, Freshman level Physics covers the topics that Krotov's book cover, but let me warn you that the problems in Krotov's book are much tougher

I found that last few problems in each chapter of Verma's books are much difficult then Resnik/Walker and sometimes even more difficult then Irodov's. Sorry couldn't agree with you :)

There's no question of being sorry. Each to his own.

And how would compare Irodov and Krotov on the problem-difficulty level and the variety level?

I didn't find H.C.Verma very good. The language in problems is not precise. Sometimes its not clear what he is asking. Irodov language is very precise and accurate, like most of those Mir books on physics.

By the way, the book by Krotov has been posted here

this website by an indian, has many other Mir titles..... I was looking for Krotov for zillion years
