Best Latin dictionary of its size for the money

By L. Higley "Magistra" - November 8, 2007

Traupman's New College Latin and English Dictionary is the best small dictionary you can get for the money, bar none. Dr. Traupman really does know his words. I have several copies stashed in various places, and give them to my students as "praemia" (rewards.) There are cuter dictionaries, and bigger ones, but this one will definitely see you safely through your undergrad work (and part of your grad work too) and will be the dictionary you grab as you are looking for just the right definition of most of the Latin that life might chance to throw your way.
