In its first edition, The Concise Oxford Dictionary was adapted by Henry Watson Fowler and Francis George Fowler from The Oxford Dictionary. From the beautiful art deco detailing to the faithfully reproduced pages, this edition authentically replicates the original 1911 publication. It includes an introduction with an essay from today’s foremost commentator on language, David Crystal, setting the book in the political and social context of its time.
