5.0 out of 5 stars The best., August 14, 2004

By	The MacUidhir (Vinland) - See all my reviews

This review is from: An Anglo-Saxon Dictionary: Based on the Manuscript Collections of Joseph Bosworth (Hardcover)

There is no other dictionary to compare with this one for being comprehensive and mostly complete in including nearly every known word in the Old English (Anglo-Saxon) language. It has been the one used by scholars for more than a century. It *is* advisable to get the 'Supplement' to this dictionary as published by Alistair Campbell via Oxford University Press. He made some valuable additions to the base dictionary.

For recent work done in expanding on this dictionary, please view the University of Toronto's Department of English webpages. They have been making significant progress in increasing our available resources for the study of Old and Middle English dialects.
