Excerpt from The English Language
The first edition of the present work was laid before the public, with the intention of representing in a form as systematic as the extent of the subject would allow, those views concerning the structure and relations of the English language, which amongst such scholars as had studied them with the proper means and Opportunities, were then generally re ceived; and which, so being received, might take their stand as established and recognized facts. With the results of modern criticism, as applied to his native tongue, it was conceived that an educated Englishman should be familiar. To this extent the special details of the language were exhibited; and to this extent the work was strictly a Grammar of the English Language.

Through detailed analysis of sound changes, vocabulary shifts, and grammatical evolution, the book reveals how English transformed from a collection of tribal dialects into the rich and expressive language we know today.
