Not what I expected
By Bettylou H. Steadman on May 13, 2012
Verified Purchase
I am somewhat disappointed in this product because it is not that easy to use. I cannot always find the word I want using that word, but have to look under other categories to find it. If you want to know the first name of someone famous, for example an author, you have to look under the catagory of "authors" and then scan though perhaps hundreds of names to try to find what you are looking for. The same goes for musicians, for example. I find it frustrating.

Big, big book. Look up a word and the dictionary gives you several other
'words'. These words are in order of how many letters, two, then three, then
four, etc.
Been helpful with those words I have never seen before.

We love it! Excellent choice! We have tried other dictionaries in the past but have been disappointed.
Our last Websters was an 89 edition. We got some great mileage out of it. We plan to do the same with this one!

I would not recommend this one

This is not your typical crossword puzzle dictionary. I would not recommend this one. It does not have as many words and the format is different. This one is not a keeper.
