Add to basket8vo 169pp. from front flap: "The author of Etymology is Professor of Linguistics in the University of Birmingham. His book is addressed to the intelligent general public, to University students of English language and literature--and also to scholars everywhere. Professor Ross makes it plain that English Etymology cannot be approached without some knowledge of General Linguistics, of the 'sound-changes' that have affected English from the time of its earliest known parent, Primitive Indo-European to the present day, and of some of those that have affected other Indo-European and Germanic languages. He has therefore incorporated in this book a summary history of the English language which can be used by students as a text-book for learning, and revising, this subject." #01956. Book VG: mild shelf/age wear to boards and spine, toning and offset to paste downs and endpapers, text clean, binding tight. DJ G: chipping with loss, age toning, clipped.
