This is a very informative dictionary, great for lanauge based around 2020. I find the double book very easy to use. I dropped one star because the paper its printed on is cheap in my mind, not that it's any different than any of todays books as the paper quality is all poor for a book I hope to keep for 20 years. If comes in a beautiful box and looks very good on the shelf. I doubt you would find one of better quality. Educate yourself and make a purchase.

This is a 6 Star rating, not 5. I thought all I was getting was a dictionary but I actually got a work of art and it is just so beautiful set of 2 books. It comes in a beautifully made and looking box and there are 2 books that are stunning to look at and it has all the words printed beautifully and boy, for less than $80.00 I find it amazing. Every home should have one. Forget computers and spell checker - just get one of these.

This is an excellent Dictionary; comprehensively compiled for any person who is interested in the Australian language, as it was intended. I enjoyed reading about the history of Governor Macquarie, in the foreward, which was written by Kate Grenville, & felt somewhat uncharacteristically patriotic, to realise how unique our Australian language actually is, relative to other world languages. It really is a ripper of a dictionary for all individuals to enjoy, for one can never underestimate the seductive power of an extensive vocabulary, as I an always fond of quoting.
