"This substantial and attractive book should be warmly welcomed . .
. a work at once authoritative and complete with an impressive
standard of accuracy: the generous cross-referencing given makes
browsing an almost mandatory pleasure, and it will indeed be a
learned reader who does not find something he did not previously
know on almost every page." Times Literary Supplement
"There has been nothing in English like Grimal's authoritative
dictionary... this text will be an essential source for specialists
and general readers alike... invaluable and sorely needed."
