The Million Word Crossword Dictionary
The dictionary itself is as described. The CONDITION of it when it arrived is my issue. It was packaged in such a way that the dust jacket was mangled and ripped. I'm just happy that it wasn't a gift for someone. Used books I've sent for labeled "fair" have been in better shape. Shipping dept, you should be ashamed!
