Finally available, a high quality book of the original classic edition of Rogets Thesaurus. This is a new and freshly published edition of this culturally important work by Peter Mark Roget, which is now, at last, again available to you.
Enjoy this classic work today. These selected paragraphs distill the contents and give you a quick look inside Rogets Thesaurus:
This first edition of this supplemented 1911 thesaurus (June 1991) is very much less complete than the latest editions of commercial thesauri, and is probably not suitable for use as an adjunct to word-processing programs, but it has no proprietary claims attached to it by MICRA, Inc., and does not contain any material published commercially after 1911.
