OUR AMERICAN LANGUAGE
By Richard D. Mallery
Garden City, New York: Halcyon House, (1947).

He focuses on American usage, offering details on various regional pronunciations, cultural phrases and colloquialisms, sources of names and words, place names, personal names, slang, terms for activities.
He also offers pronunciation accounts and guides for the language he hears and reads in everyday life.
Some offset age-toning to the front end-sheet, shelf-edges lightly rubbed, else near fine in grey linen with green embossed titles to the spine; in a near fine dust jacket with mild crimp-wear to the upper and lower spine edges and corner tips; original $2.00 price still intact to the front inner flap.
Nice and presentable!
