[资源] 超级好书 原版彩图 The EnglishLanguage Tourist's Guide to Britain

[A] labour of love, enthusiasm and mild eccentricity it's like a long and chatty guide written by a close friend, only in this case the friend happens to be one of the world's foremost authorities on language. (Vulpes Libris)

Part history, part travel guide, illustrated with high-quality colour photographs of places associated with the development of the language and those writers who used it to greatest effect, it is an origianl and ambitious project wonderfully realised. (Evergreen)

Language is a living thing, and Crystal is a lively, literate guide to the landmarks that signpost its long history. (Iain Finlayson, The Times)

A splendiferous, beautiful, colourful book that every language, history, archaeology and literature lover should have on their coffee tables and tucked under their arms when they get on a train to jaunt across the country. (Huffington Post)

Linguist David Crystal and his wife, Hilary, a speech therapist, cover a lot of ground, literally and figuratively, in this ambitious journey through the evolution of the English language. (Publishers Weekly)

No person who loves language and visiting places should be without this book - I can't praise it highly enough! (Michele Clarke, Editing Matters, Society for Editors and Proofreaders)

An absorbing read, delivered in Crystal's usual clear and enthusiastic style. (The Good Book Guide)

an original and ambitious project wonderfully realised (The Evergreen Magazine)

an important and original book on the history of the English language. (Norwich Evening News)

An eloquent, learned guide offering inspiration for linguists and travellers alike. (Sophie Mcgrath, Lonely Planet Traveller)

If you're currently looking for a Christmas present for someone with an interest in English and its history, you might want to consider this gorgeous book (Language Hat)
