5.0 out of 5 stars For those who are considering a purchase...., 10 Jul 2007

By	John Cowan (New York NY) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

...the entire contents of Lewis and Short is available at the Perseus website at Oxford University (googling will find it easily). However, the hard copy is much more convenient for regular use.

4.0 out of 5 stars ilico, 6 Jan 2005

By A Customer

The small, compact typeface can be exasperating. However, the font size has kept the edition portable in one volume. The dictionary focuses in a very scholarly manner on Classical Latin and illustrates each word usage with examples (untranslated) from identified Classical texts. The dictionary is a momument to scholarhsip. The Greek origin of some Latin words is also supplied. While not ideal for beginners, and cumbersome, the dictionary is a classic itself. The age of a dictionary is, I believe, is an asset, especially for the translation of texts written in a period prior to our own. It is useful, but not without effort.

5.0 out of 5 stars Without a doubt the best Latin Dictionary on the market., 20 Oct 2000

By A Customer

Lewis & Short have produced the definitive Latin Dictionary in this massive tome - a delight to bibliophiles and an amazingly in-depth reference book for Latin scholars at any level. Occasionally irritiating when it refers you around from entry to entry in a slightly prudish effort to avoid embarrassment (look up "pedico" or "irrumo" for a perfect example).
