Mr. Seaver,
Random House/vs Merriam Webster Dictionaires:
As someone who works in publishing, and speaking of the latest versions of the
**book** versions of the 2 dictionaries, I would say it depends on what you
want: Random is better on what to italicize and cap and the clarity of the
definitions; Merriam Webster is better on etymology.
