An American Dictionary of the English Language: Intended to Exhibit (2 Vols. Set) - Gyan Books
About The Book: Spanning two volumes, Noah Webster’s *An American Dictionary of the English Language* (1828) was a groundbreaking work that redefined American English. Volume I (A–I) and Volume II (J–Z) together offered over 70,000 entries with clear definitions, word origins, and usage examples. Webster introduced distinctly American spellings and embraced words from science, law, theology, and everyday life. He emphasized etymology, moral clarity, and national identity, making the dictionary not just a linguistic tool but a cultural manifesto. His work promoted literacy and education, laying the foundation for a uniquely American form of the English language.
