Summary: An interesting compilation
Comment: The Oxford Dictionary for Writers and Editors is an interesting compilation of the correct British spelling of unusual or easily-confused words including abbreviations, place names as well as famous and not so famous names connected with history, literature and politics. I would highly recommend it to journalists and editors, who need to know that Maldon is in Essex, that the battle of Malplaquet was in 1709, or that Benazir Bhutto (b. 1953, former prime minister of Pakistan from 1988-90 and 1993-96) is the daughter of Zulfikar Ali Bhutto (1928-79), former president (1971-73) and prime minister (1973-77) of Pakistan. A lot of the entries, such as "malcontent not malecontent," could easily be looked up in a dictionary, but you would certainly need a whole reference library to find the other entries. Overall a useful addition to the bookshelf of anyone interested in words.
