Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Phonetic Journal, Vol. 3: January, 1856 The beautiful system of writing known as Phonography, is based on a strictly Phonetic analysis of our language, and combines with grater legibility greater brevity than any system of shorthand previously invented. Such was the favor with which this system was received in this country as well as in England. That it originated in the minds of many who had not before directed their thoughts to the desirability of a rational spelling, the idea that the application of the Phonetic principle to printing was as desirable, and might be equally successful as had been it: application to writing.

Combined Edition: Book and Multimedia CD-ROM The book contains 23 chapters that re-define the geographic boundaries of North American dialects and trace the influence of gender, age, education, and city size on the progress of sound change; findings that show a dramatic and increasing divergence of English in North America; 139 four color maps that illustrate the regional distribution of phonological and phonetic variables across the North American continent; 120 four color vowel charts of individual speakers. The multimedia CD-ROM supplements the articles and maps by providing a data base with measurements of more than 100,000 vowels and mean values for 439 speakers; the Plotnik program for mapping each of the individual vowel systems; extended sound samples of all North American dialects; multimedia applications to enhance classroom presentations.
