The DOUBLE LIST WORD BOOK by Ethel Cannon Sherard is a reference & study aid for Scrabble addicts, crossword puzzle fans & other word games entusiasts. Sherard has arranged a list of 100,000 words, two to eight letters in length; two lists for each letter in the alphabet, one list beginning with the letter, followed by a similar list of words ending with that letter; & special lists of words ending in "ee," words beginning with "oo," & words containing the letters "J," "Q," "X," & "Z." An excellent source for increasing vocabulary for word games & for learning words by word length. THE DOUBLE LIST WORD BOOK is a collector's item! Compiled by Sherard at age 84, sans computer, it was the FIRST word book list published after Scrabble words were standardized for tournament play. "A delightful grab bag of 'dribbles', 'griddles', & 'gripples'."--Roger Dione, L.A. Times.Sherard, Ethel C. is the author of 'Double List Word Book' with ISBN 9780960528806 and ISBN 0960528806.
