This is the first full account of the making of John Jamieson's Etymological        Dictionary of the Scottish Language. The dictionary was published in two volumes in        1808, with a two-volume Supplement following in 1825. Lists of Scots words had been        compiled before, but Jamieson's was the first complete dictionary of the language.          It was a landmark in the development of historical lexicography and was an        inspiration for later lexicographers, including Sir James Murray,founding editor of        the OED. Susan Rennie's account of Jamieson's work and the methods he developed        interweaves biography, lexicography, and linguistic, social, and book history to        present a rounded account of the man, his work, and his times. It is the first study        to draw on Jamieson's correspondence and the survivingmanuscript materials for the        Dictionary and Supplement to reveal Jamieson's working methods and the important        contributions made by Sir Walter Scott and others to his work.
