Hardcover. Condition: New. 2nd Edition. Words of Indian origin have been insinuating themselves into English ever since the end of the reign of Elizabeth and the beginning of that of King James, when such terms as calico, chintz, and gingham had long passed into English language and literature. Such foreign words started being used quite frequently 185 years ago when, soon after the middle of the last century the number of English men in Indian services, civil and military expanded with the great acquisition of dominion then made by the East India Company. Hobson-Jobson in original compilation was intended to deal with all that class of words which, not in general pertaining to the technicalities of administration, recur in the daily intercourse of English in India, either as expressing ideas really not provided for by English language or supposed by speakers to express something not capable of just denotation by any English term. The work, in the long course of its compilation underwent some modification and enlargement of scope which has been presented to readers. Those who have studied the pages of Hobson-Jobson have agreed in classing it as unique among similar works of reference, a volume which combines interest and amusement with instruction, in a manner which few other dictionaries if any, have done.

This copy has extensive underlining and marginalia throughout. The marginalia is neat, but as it is very extensive it will detract from the appeal of this copy to some, while others might find the marginalia itself to be interest. The marginalia is in green ink, red ink, and pencil. In their nature, the marginal comments repeat key-words from the text, such as names and dates and specific topics or what might be called keywords. They also include some cross-references to other pages in this volume. Folding map at rear also has some marginalia.
