Seller's Description:
Very Good. Not Issued with a Dust Jacket. Folio-over 12"-15" tall. "In presenting interpretive maps one sometimes has to make arbitrary decisions about where to draw isoglosses. The footnotes on each lexical map gives full details of our practice in subsuming compounds or other variants under the form represented on the labelled distributional are, together with brief comments where necessary on the interpretation of the responses. The map legends for the morphological and syntactical sections of the atlas follow in general the pattern of the lexical legends and should be self-explanatory, though a note on the ordering of the entries in the morphological section may be useful. These are presented according to a system devised by Harold Orton." VERY GOOD HARDCOVER, the hinges of this heavy book have been repaired, else fine, slipcase is in good condition.
