4.0 out of 5 stars Delaware Vocabulary, September 2, 2004

This review is from: Denny's Vocabulary of Delaware (American Language Reprints) (Hardcover)

This is a modern reprint of Ebenezer Denny's 1860 vocabulary of the Delaware Indian language (Lenape). It is a very small volume, and there is no phonetic key. An interesting book from a historical linguistics persepective or if you'd like to learn a few words of Delaware, but don't buy it expecting to learn how to speak the language. The book includes historical background and the author's original letters.
