Anglo-Saxon Primer by Henry Sweet

This fascinating text is the fourth edition of a comprehensive study of Old-English. Although written as a scientific approach to the subject, this text constitutes the easiest possible introduction to the field and is perfect for anyone looking to begin studying Old-English. A great addition to any collection of antiquarian linguistic literature, this rare text has been elected for modern republication due to its immense educational value, and is proudly republished here complete with a new introduction to the subject. Chapters contained herein include: Grammar, Texts, Notes, and Glossary, with the section Notes consisting chiefly of references to the Grammar intended mainly for those who study without a teacher.
