5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Source for Reverse Lookup, April 23, 2001
By "tmountjo" (Fond du Lac, WI United States) - See all my reviews
Absolutely a fine dictionary that is useful to Anglo Saxon students and enthusiasts! A perfect work for finding Anglo Saxon words when one only knows Modern English. It also is a great piece for learning large chunks of vocabulary (fast). This small treasure divides vocabulary into similar categories that almost makes the book not only a dictionary, but a thesaurus as well. (This in addition to having the entire work in alphabetical order)

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book on Old English, July 14, 2003
By Wyatt Kaldenberg (Bonsall, CA 92003) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
When I bought this book I was not expecting much, however, it is a good little book. It's easy to use. I liked the grouping of Old English words into topics. Well worth the price. It is user-friendly to the layman, which most books on Old English are not.

By agricola (Chapel Hill, NC USA) - See all my reviews
An excellent source for anyone who wants to write or speak Old English. There are even a few "modern" words.
