New American Webster College Dictionary
What I like about this small but handy dictionary is that it has many of the features of an unabridged dictionary such as abbreviations, foreign phrase and words, gazetteer, forms of address, measurements, signs and symbols. Many of the words include its etymological background. The gazetteer is extremely handy giving precise and succent information.The section on “How To Use This Dictionary” contains valuable information that is most useful to the user.This dictionary is a good buy for the price.

Very good and handy little dictionary
Very good and handy little dictionary. I look up a lot of old or unusual words and have found just about everything in this book. I also like the little boxes on almost every page explaining differences is usage between similar sounding words. And they also contain interesting information of the origin of some words. Definitions are succinct and to the point. It is also the right size to thumb through quickly and find what you’re looking for.

It’s all here in one handy volume!
I bought this new copy as I completely wore out the previous edition! It was virtually “in shreds.” I keep the mini-dictionary handy as I read my Los Angeles Times and listen to CNN and MSNBC. With so much “fake news” coming from the White House, I needed to verify with my printed aide. A wonderful volume!

A great read
This is a great book to just read. All the words are in alphabetical order, which is very helpful when looking for a meaning.
