Correct English: A Monthly Magazine Devoted to the Proper Use of English, Volume 1 (November, 1899–October, 1900)
Josephine Turck Baker, Editor
A complete bound Volume 1 of Correct English: A Monthly Magazine Devoted to the Proper Use of English , edited by Josephine Turck Baker (November, 1899–October, 1900). The volume includes frontmatter (mainly library circulation-related), and an index and advertising page in the endmatter. The tone is remarkably prescriptive and old-fashioned sounding; do not take this advice on, for example, "shall" vs "will" usage, these days. Also, there is definitely a flavor of racism running throughout regarding "proper" pronunciation, and the history of English etymologically.... Scanned at 600dpi, 24-bit color, algorithmically deskewed and then manually cropped.
