[QUOTE]Originally posted by the lioness,: [QB] ^ I don't think you are going to find the later illustrated version of that same dictionary online The original version simply says: CAUCASIAN CAUCASEAN Pertaining to Mount Caucus in Asia [i]As Resarches, Pinkerton[/i] Assuming that it is correct that that illustration is from the illustrated version of the Webster's dictionary based on the 1928 [QUOTE] Upon Webster's death in 1843, the unsold books and all rights to the copyright and name "Webster" were purchased by brothers George and Charles Merriam, who then hired Webster's son-in-law Chauncey A. Goodrich, a professor at Yale College, to oversee revisions. Goodrich's New and Revised Edition appeared on 24 September 1847, and a Revised and Enlarged edition in 1859, which added a section of illustrations indexed to the text. His revisions remained close to Webster's work, but removed what later editors referred to as his "vexcrescences". In 1850, Blackie and Son in Glasgow published the first general dictionary of English that made heavy use of pictorial illustrations integrated with the text, The Imperial Dictionary, English, Technological, and Scientific, Adapted to the Present State of Literature, Science, and Art; On the Basis of Webster's English Dictionary [/QUOTE]^^ these two other versions based on the 1928 are the ones with illustrations added after Webster's death [/QB][/QUOTE]
