The American Spelling Book

The American Spelling Book (The Blue Back Speller) was first published in 1783. It was destined to be the most used textbook in America. Over 100,000,000 copies of this book have been sold. Its impact on American culture and spelling have lingered to the present day. The American Spelling Book is still the most useful textbook for teaching children how to read. It is also essential to anyone who is studying early American History and the development of education in North America. This revised edition of the 1809 American Spelling Book faithfully captures the spirit of the original American Spelling Book while modernizing the typeset and spellings.
