The ^AUnited States of English is written by Rosemarie Ostler and published by Oxford University Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0197647316 (ISBN 10) and 9780197647318 (ISBN 13).
The United States of English tells the story of how American English grew and changed from colonial times to the present, exploring how the American language is different from British English and how it got that way. From the English of the colonists to slang, regional dialects, African American English, the internet, and "political correctness," Rosemarie Ostler shows how the language has evolved and is still evolving today. Written for non-specialists, it is filled with colorful examples of past and present English that bring the language to life.
