From the preface:  To outsiders it sounds strange, even uncultured. But what many North Carolinians do to the King’s English was done centuries ago by the Queen. The correspondence and writings of Queen Elizabeth I and such men as Sir Walter Raleigh, Marlowe, Dryden, Bacon and even Shakespeare are sprinkled with words and expressions which today are commonplace in remote regions of North Carolina. … This little dictionary is divided into three sections. The first contains definitions of old English words and phrases still used in North Carolina.  The second section contains a selection of North Carolina dialect; and the third, some of the more colorful expressions you are likely to hear in the backwoods of our rural regions or on the main streets of our cities.
