This has been my companion through long hours of writing growing up, and often substituted for a dictionary during long hours of reading. My mom trusted it in her high school and college years. It's a trusted book and has handled years of use well. Even now that it's convenient to use computers for everything reference oriented, I still occasionally keep away from screens and fall back on my old text companions like this book.
