Produced a year after Webster's original two-volume edition, this abridgement was edited by Joseph Emerson Worcester. Worcester had been Webster's assistant on the two-volume edition and would later become a competitor, producing his own dictionary in 1830. This rivalry led to what has become known as the "dictionary wars."
