Twice as big as most It actually has the words you want to look up.
I find it to be a very useful tool to have at hand. This book was received in excellent condition and was as specified.
That word is not in this book. This book is good for the High School level, but would flunk for any college level. I have a BA in History, but that doesn't mean I don't come across words I don't know. Neither is the "F" word - ironically, the true touchstone of collegiate work. Sad, because Webster's hardcover collegiate is one of the best. I wanted a handy, AUTHORITATIVE book for the nightstand for those odd words that come up in history texts (and, yes, novels). "Strake" is a good example (thank you Bernard Cornwell).
Will use this source again. this book was a great buy. very knowledgable, up to date, and fast delivery.
I am totally satisfied with the purchase of this dictionary, I wouldrefer anyone to get one
