About the Author
Since 1937, Merriam-Webster is America's foremost publisher of
language-related reference works. The company publishes a diverse array
of print and electronic products, including Merriam-Webster's
Collegiate® Dictionary, Eleventh Edition – America's best-selling desk
dictionary – and Webster's Third New International Dictionary,
Unabridged. Merriam-Webster can be considered the direct
lexicographical heir of Noah Webster. In 1843, the company bought the
rights to the 1841 edition of Webster's magnum opus, An American
Dictionary of the English Language, Corrected and Enlarged. At the same
time, they secured the rights to create revised editions of the work.
Since that time, Merriam-Webster editors have carried forward Noah
Webster's work, creating some of the most widely used and respected
dictionaries and reference books in the world.
