Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Review of Webster´s System of Orthography, From the United States Democratic Review, for March, 1856 The new York Evening Post, in speaking of this Review, says, - "We do not remember to have seen elsewhere such full justice done to Noah Webster´s System of Orthography, under which the English language has been corrupting for the last quarter of a century, as in an article which we find in the last number of the Democratic Review. We have copied it at length in our columns, and would gladly contribute toward the expense of having it read twice a year in every school house in the United States, until every trace of Websterian spelling disappears from the land. It is a melancholy evidence of the amount of mischief one man of learning can do to society, that Webster´s System of Orthography is adopted and propagated by the largest publishing house; through the columns of the most widely circulated monthly magazine, and through one of the ablest and most widely circulated newspapers in the United States. "The article is attributed to the pen of Edward S. Gould, of this city." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
