About this Item
Description:
Dispatched, from the UK, within 48 hours of ordering. Though second-hand, the book is still in very good shape. Minimal signs of usage may include very minor creasing on the cover or on the spine. Aged book. Tanned pages and age spots, however, this will not interfere with reading. Grubby book may have mild dirt or some staining, mostly on the edges of pages. Seller Inventory # CHL10050336
Synopsis:
The authors have scanned the birth announcements from Britain, the USA, Canada and Australia as part of their names research. This book reflects the full range of first names, from those used before the Norman Conquest to the latest popular names such as Brittany, Chelsea and Kyle. Unisex names are covered, and so are surnames now popular as first names such as Taylor.
