Harold Orton, Stewart Sanderson, John Widdowson (eds.) - The linguistic atlas of England.University of Leeds 1978, Unpaginated; several hundreds of pages, HB, quarto, slipcase.Published in cooperation by Max Hueber (Germany), Croom Helm (London) and Shubun (Japan).Huge undertaking, principally by Harold Orton, who unfortunately did not see the publication, to determine empirically and show visibly which English is spoken where in England. From the first inspiration, in 1923, until publication more than half a century went by, during which the Second World War caused a considerable “mixing up of peoples”. The results have ramifications for the establishment of the origins of 18th century American colonists and, therefore, of the American population.
