This was a great purchase, however I need a dictionary with a larger print. My eye sight is not as good as it used to be.
A handy dictionary to carry in your briefcase
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This is an affordable version of the writer's most basic need: a dictionary. Although it is not as extensive as higher priced versions, it will serve when the larger tomes are not available. Light and small enough for briefcases and laptop carrying cases, this handy guide is a best buy.
