Synopsis
Written virtually single-handedly by a revered dean of English letters, Johnson's Dictionary first appeared in 1755 and it served as the standard dictionary for more than 150 years. This modern version reduces the original 2,300 pages of definitions to a more manageable length, and features many entries that can no longer be found in most modern dictionaries.
