Authorship Editorial Review
British English from A to Zed is an excellent guidebook for those interested in understanding the differences between American and British English. The book is comprehensive in its explanations and provides not only the usual vocabulary but also a breakdown of how weight measurements, town names and pronunciations differ. Although the book claims to be a definitive guide, it falls short of being a dictionary with only a limited number of phrases included. Nonetheless, it is a great research tool for work or a perfect gift for an American friend struggling to understand British vocabulary.
