Book Reviews of The Million Word Crossword Dictionary

Book Review: THE BEST CROSSWORD DICTIONARY EVER
Summary: 5 Stars

I purchased the new "Million Word Dictionary", thinking it would be maybe just a bit better then any other dictionary. Guess what? It's a MILLION times better then my old Dell dictionary, and the New York Times dictionary that I have used for years. (they have now been sent to the attic).

One of its greatest features is that all the capitols are located together, as well as the rivers.

Who won the Nobel Prize for literature in 1934? Turn to page 776, and all the Nobel Prize winners are listed.

It doesn't matter what you are looking for, movies, sports, actors, foreign names. Its all there, and real easy to find.

I am not much of a TV watcher, and I was pleasantly surprised to find so many entries on TV personalities and the shows. I have been able to finish many more puzzles, as a result of having this book.

Having this dictionary handy, when I get stumped, is almost like having you the author next to me, giving me the answers. A truly great Crossword dictionary.

Summary of The Million Word Crossword Dictionary

With more than 1,000,000 answers, this volume contains more than twice as many answers as any other crossword dictionary. More important, it is the first crossword dictionary ever to comprehensively cover the clues and answers that actually appear in today's most popular crosswords, including contemporary slang, phrases, and brand names.

Meticulously compiled by two crossword professionals with a combined thirty years in the field, and based on a massive analysis of current crosswords, there has never been a crossword dictionary with the breadth, depth, and currency of this one. From Jim Carrey to Sister Carrie, Homer Simpson to Homer's Iliad, the wide-ranging entries include 500,000+ synonyms, 3,000+ literary works, 5,000+ films, 20,000+ famous people from all fields, and more than 100,000 fill-in-the-blank clues so popular in today's crosswords.

Featuring an introduction by New York Times crossword editor Will Shortz, The Million Word Crossword Dictionary makes every other crossword dictionary obsolete.
