Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Reprint. 5 1/2 x 8 x 2 1/2; xxx, 1344 pages; Hard cover has green spine with gold lettering. Slight bumping and rubbing to covers. Pages are clean and tight; appears as if unused. Originally published in 1927. This is a new, revised and greatly enlarged edition. "Pádraig Ó Duinnín worked on the Irish-English Dictionary first edition from 1901 to 1904.Dinneen (especially in the 1927 "greatly enlarged" edition) took a lead from the recently published Oxford English Dictionary, in supplying literary contexts for the meanings listed under each entry. A thesaurus of the words, phrases and idioms [Roget first appeared some fifty years previously], Dinneen's work is often more like an encyclopaedia of pre-industrial manners, customs, lore, skills and crafts". A great linguistic treasure and invaluable resource. Seller Inventory # 8508
