""A Glossary Of North Country Words In Use"" is a book that was originally written by John Trotter Brockett in 1825. The book is a compilation of words and phrases that were commonly used in the northern regions of England during the 19th century. The original manuscript was found in the library of John George Lambton, and Brockett added considerable additions to it. The book is divided into different sections, each focusing on a particular topic such as agriculture, clothing, food, and drink. The words and phrases are listed alphabetically, with their definitions and examples of how they were used in everyday conversation. The glossary provides a fascinating insight into the language and culture of the North Country during the 19th century. It includes many words and phrases that are no longer in use, as well as some that are still used today. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the English language, as well as those studying the history and culture of the North Country.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
