I bought this unabridged dictionary for my grandson who is going into high school. I knew about the product before I purchased it on Amazon. Amazon’s price was the best, service great as usual, and delivery arrived when they said it would.
The whole transaction gets 5 starts *****!

this thing is as complete as it is heavy, and that’s saying something. really, what more do you need?

I carried this wonderful tome along on my last backpacking trip in the Sierra. Boy, was I glad I had brought it! We got stuck in snow in one of those trailside shelter thingys for three days. My significant porter and I took turns bashing each other all over with it, not for any kind of kinky thrill, mind you, simply just to fend off cold and boredom. After we had done with breaking it in, we opened it to the letter M and used it as a pillow-for-two! It was really just serendipity that I brought it along in the first place–we had decided to leave the gaz backpacking stoves at home in order to practice our foraging skills. Since I had a little extra space I tucked it under the rubber chicken and ankle weights.
On the third day, we decided to use some of the grammar appendix to kindle a little warm-up flame. During snowbound days, we read definitions to each other. I recommend this book for any serious camper.
