Editorial Reviews

"It is a delight to use a general dictionary of the English language that so capably acknowledges the existence of Canadian words and Canadian usage. To my mind it is the best of the lot for our purposes in Canada."
-- W. E. Messenger, Professor of English, University of British Columbia
