Dr. MURRAY, Editor of the Oxford English Dictionary^ says : In this its 

 latest form, and with its large Supplement and numerous appendices, it is a wonderful 

 volume, which well maintains its ground against all rivals on its own lines. The defini 

 tions, or more properly, explanations of meaning in Webster have always struck me 

 as particularly terse and well-put ; and it is hard to see how anything better could be 

 done within the limits. 



Professor JOSEPH WRIGHT, M.A., Ph.D., D.C.T... LL.D., Editor oj 

 the English Dialect Dictionary, says : The new edition of &quot; Webster s International 

 Dictionary &quot; is undoubtedly the most useful and reliable work of its kind in any country. 

 No one who has not examined the work carefully would believe that such a vast amount 

 of lexicographic*! information could possibly be found within so small a compass. 



Professor A. H. 8AYCE, LL.D., D.D., says: It is indeed a marvellous 

 work ; it is difficult to conceive of a Dictionary more exhaustive and complete. Every 

 thing is in it not only what we might expect to find in such a work, but also what few 

 of us would ever have thought of looking for. 



Rev. JOSEPH WOOD, D.D., Head Master oj Harrow, says . I have always 

 thought very highly of its merits. Indeed, I consider it to be far the most accurate 

 English Dictionary in existence, and much more reliable than the &quot;Century.&quot; For 

 daily and hourly reference, &quot;Webster &quot; seems to me unrivalled.
