I second the motion for feedback from anyone who's used it. The American
Heritage is one of my favorite dictionaries--the Usage Notes alone are
worth the price of admission for me, as I like to use the word with just
the right connotation, and the book is full of notes comparing flavors A
through Z of a word and distinguishing the nuances.

I haven't had any luck finding it through the big Mac mail-order houses,
so far. Hal, maybe if you and I start a phone-in campaign...?
