Book Club Associates, 1975, Hardback in dust wrapper.
From the cover: "Eric Partridge's books on the English language are known throughout the world. The present work combines scholarship with a lively readability; reference-book accuracy with literary distinction. Not only is it trenchant and witty but also it has been kept up to date.
The reputation, like the sales, of Usage and Abusage has been steadily growing ever since its publication. This new edition has been improved in all respects, enlarged and completely revised."
Very Good — in Very Good Dust Wrapper. Gently faded at the spine.
Black boards with Gilt titling to the Spine. 392 pages. 8¾" x 5½".
