    YES.

    IT IS FINALLY WITHIN MY GRASP.

    Pennies for scale. The actual dictionary is only slightly smaller than the case.

     

    It used to be my granddad's; I only made enough space in my bookcase to fit it just last week.

     

    This baby brings my total number of owned dictionaries to 5 (one of which is a two-volume set).

    Compacts the 30-volume set of Oxford Dictionaries down into a single tome by shrinking 9 normal dictionary pages down to fit on each page - you need a magnifying glass to read the thing.

    Any time you think you have a big book, weigh it and, if it weighs more than 15 pounds, then and only then do you have a big book.

    This is a big book.

      this is the best dictionary

      it even has a 40-page-or-so user manual.

      @pinkfluffhorse

      Do you read dictionaries much, or do you prefer actual reading-books?
