4.0 out of 5 stars A large collection 3 April 2009

By Robert J. Yates

A big book, almost too large to handle conveniently. But a fine collection of alternatives for almost all the words in the dictionary. Very useful for crossword puzzle solvers

4.0 out of 5 stars Heavy Reading 13 Nov 2009

By Mr. Donald Thompson

A superb range of words but the book is so heavy it makes it difficult to use. The additional "lists" were excellent and wide ranging
