I have a copy of this book. It belonged to my great grandmother. The full listing on the inside of the book is; The Universal Pronouncing Dictionary of the English Language, as spoken and written: Founded on the principles of THE MOST EMINENT AUTHORITIES. Also abreviations, and a collection of foreign words and phrases. It consist of 320 pages, has over three hundred engravings, and is cloth covered. Illustrations are spread throughout the book and though they are very detailed they clearly give away the era in which the dictionary was written. Published by Wakefield; Nicholson & Sons
