Cervantes-Walls Spanish/English Dictionary

This is a good dictionary for Latin American Spanish -- but it is not the best dictionary for the Spanish spoken in Spain. The best aspect is the type -- bold and very clear, big enough to read easily in dim light of a restaurant. There are many cognates, which helps when looking for expressions and idioms.
