Readers Digest Oxford Complete Wordfinder. A unique and powerful combination of dictionary and thesaurus.
Online Review:
"Even though all writers need constant access to a Dictionary and Thesaurus we still experience those wretched occasions when the right word simply will not come. Personally, I was unaware that a combined Dictionary and Thesaurus even existed until I came across this particular product at a car boot sale. Lucky me, in mint condition I picked it up for a song!
The Reader's Digest Complete Wordfinder is exactly that - the means of finding whatever elusive word is sitting at the back of your mind but simply avoids identification. Set out like a Dictionary, all words are listed and described as one would expect to find. For those words which also have different meanings or for which other words describe the same thing (e.g.: Pattern, figure, motif, design) those synonyms appear at the end of each word's definition - just as they would in a Thesaurus.
In the short time I have owned a copy if this book, I have already come to rely on it more than either of the two invaluable tomes it has now replaced - both of which are particularly well-thumbed. This product is indispensable for any writer - at whatever level, and I am amazed that I was previously unaware such an item existed."
Still sealed in cellophane, so brand new ! Weighs about 2.2Kg so will cost $5-70 for postage (tracked, will cost $8-50 for Rural). Very useful item !
I have a variety of items up for grabs, so please do look at my other listings.
No worries with combining (-:} postage on auctions (as long as it can be done), to reduce overall costs.
ENJOY YOUR TRADING !!
