What Customers Say About Black's Law Dictionary: Abridged Version:

This book is a very good source for legal terminology and ease of use at a very reasonable price.
Blacks Law Dictionary arrived promptly, was in fantastic condition and I had a very smooth transaction with this vendor. Thanks.
I bought the dictionary for a significant amount smaller than it was selling in stores, and it was sent to me in PERFECT condition. I'm 100% satisfied with this product.
Despite that, I have been very happy this older edition.It's a comprehensive list of terms with over 16,000 definitions. I bought BLACK'S LAW DICTIONARY for two basic reasons.First, the Abridged Fifth Edition was very affordable. And I also wanted to compare it with the legal dictionary that I already have.The only negative that I can think of is the age of this edition. That's considerably more than Oran's Dictionary of the Law has.I found the definitions to be thorough.The pronunciation guide is another feature that I appreciate in BLACK'S.An added bonus is the U.S. Constitution in the back of the dictionary.If you are searching for an affordable, comprehensive law dictionary this edition is worthy of consideration.
Checked several sources for this book and found it listed for much less than elsewhere. Very happy with this purchase
