The Roxburghshire Word-Book: Being a Record of the Special Vernacular Vocabulary of the County of Roxburgh
George Watson
Originally published in 1923, this book forms an in-depth record of the vernacular speech of Roxburghshire. Rather than offering a full vocabulary, something already covered by various Scottish dictionaries, the text was written to provide information on the distinctive terms of the region, both past and present, with illustrative quotations.
