ENGLISH SYNONYMS AND ANTONYMS Designed by James Champlin Fernald (1838-1918) as a Companion for the Study and as a Text-Book for the Use of Schools. A Practical and Invaluable Guide to Clear and Precise Diction for Writers, Speakers, Students, Business and Professional Men.
It is basically a vocabulary builder. Each entry gives a list of synonyms, followed by a paragraph that briefly explains or exemplifies the subtle distinctions between the listed words. The entries sometimes close with a few words on the prepositions that follow selected synonyms, but more often with a list of antonyms.
