Description
1863 Noah Webster HUGE Civil War Dictionary Illustrated English Grammar Lexicon



A rare and HUGE American dictionary by Noah Webster. This printing is an enlarged and illustrated edition with hundreds of in-text figures. The name ‘Webster’ has become synonymous with dictionary over the last century. Noah Webster sought to create a purely ‘American’ culture that was independent of British claim, he achieved this by creating this dictionary – a work that helped distance American grammar and linguistics from that of Britain.



The illustrations in this Civil War-era dictionary includes views of birds and animals, plants and seeds, coats-of-arms, and more.
