Book Description

Secondhand. Good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges. Blue pen stain to tail foredge. Interior and binding are still excellent.

This book tells for the first time the story of Australian English. Where it came from, the forces that mouldered it, why it takes its present form and where it is going. The development of Australian English is inextricably intertwined with Australian history and culture and of the development of Australian identity.
