This dictionary and thesaurus share a single alphabet, so the meaning of a word and its alternatives turn up in the same place.
You look something up once. No flipping to a second book to find out whether there is a better word for it.
Details
Over sixty thousand entries on the dictionary side and more than thirteen thousand on the thesaurus side, with usage examples where a definition alone would not settle it.
Good to know
A hardcover brick, and the type is set small to fit it in. Fine if it lives open on a desk; anyone who needs large print should look elsewhere.
