Customer Reviews

Monotonous

While the storyline is not great, it does explain all the words in alphabetical order.The description of antidisestablishmentarianism was most enlightening though. The ending was a little predictable, the build up to a description of zytoplasm disappointing.A little more imagination required here, I could find no reference to common terms such as bum bandit, hand shandy, shirt lifter and fudge nudgers.

One of the best on the market

This is a great thesaurus. Easy to read, easy to understand. If you are looking for a top notch, high quality, inexpensive thesaurus, this is the book for you. I recommend this highly without reservation.
