Customer Reviews

good quality, good price

I like this dictionary. It has many modern words. The book looks bigger than the picture, but it is a good study book for learning English. The book is very new and has good quality.

Just the right size and printed on acid free paper in the US

I picked this dictionary after checking to see if it defines transgender in a way I can accept. The paper is white and the print is easy for this 52 year old to read. If I want to find a word that I cannot remember the spelling, and have stumped ieSpell, I need something easy to handle. Any larger and it would be too large.

Concise Oxford American Dictionary

This book came in 3 days, in brand new, excellent condition and at an excellent price. It is real value for the money.

A Bit Too Concise

I like the size, but I prefer the definitions and content of the American Heritage Dictionary.
