Description
Printing a full dictionary in the blockaded Confederacy was a feat : paper was scarce, type worn, and J. W. Randolph of Richmond did it anyway in 1864. Based on John Walker's classic pronouncing dictionary, the Palmetto Dictionary is prized today as a substantial Confederate imprint — a witness to publishing under siege. With the engraved portrait of Walker.This is a faithful print-on-demand facsimile of the 1864 Richmond, Va. (J. W. Randolph) edition, reproduced in full from a library copy. The historical text is reproduced without modification; only the format, margins and legibility have been reset for modern printing.
