Linguistic Society of America, 1926. — 126 p. — (Language monographs 3).
The aim of this work is to discuss only those points that are in dispute or that have been incorrectly interpreted, without a survey of exploded theories or the repetition of well established facts. In giving new etymologies it is hoped that the bare facts presented without comment will be illuminating enough to those among the open-minded who can see for themselves. If in any particular case the etymologies offered do not bring conviction, certainly the body of proof can leave no doubt.
