Founding Grammars: How Early America's War over Words Shaped Today's Language by Rosemarie OstlerMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
I'm throwing this back as it's not what I was really hoping for. It's quite good if you're interested in the actual history of language "rules" in this country. I finished the Webster chapter and realized that I didn't really care about any of the rest of the people--nor did I really care about Webster that much!--and gave up. :)
