Book Reviews of Burton's Legal Thesaurus
Book Review: Useful book
Summary: 4 Stars
The book is very useful. However, the Latin phrases are probably no longer necessary in the U.S. legal practice.
I've noticed one error that is carried over from one edition to the next: in Index under the entry "in error" look for word "fallacioadmit." I speculate that a portion of text disappeared and fallacious was merged with admit. The words that follow admit do not appear to belong in the "in error" article.

Douglas, Justice, U.S. Supreme Court 1939-1975 Since 1979, Burton's Legal Thesaurus has been the number-one resource for attorneys, writers, and scholars in need of synonyms unique to the legal profession.
