A GENU MERR-WEBSTER
The name Webster alone is no guarantee of excellence. It is used by a
number of publishers and may serve mainly to mislead an unwar
buyer.
Merram-WebsterTM is the name you should look for when you
consider the purchase of dictionares or other fine reference books. It cares the reputation of a company that has been publishing since 1831 and is your assurace of quality and authority.
