The Wrong Word Dictionary

The correct usage for more than 2,500 commonly misused words is provided
in this concise and accessible handbook that assures, insures, and
ensures that anyone who wants to communicate accurately and effectively
chooses the right word every time. Arranged alphabetically in pairs (or
threes when appropriate), entries are carefully cross-referenced and
explained with a sentence, guaranteeing that readers find "boycott," even
when they look up "embargo" first. Two dozen accompanying cartoons
humorously clarify confusing distinctions between words, making this a
fun reference for all word lovers to enjoy.
