While there have been many books on the history of globalization to
date, most have stressed economics and politics. Cultural
globalization, of which the emergence of English as the world's
first global language is a prime example, has been comparatively
neglected. In this book, the first written about the globalization
of the English language by a professional historian, the
exploration of English's global ascendancy receives its proper
historical due. Historians have traditionally left the history of
language to linguists and other language specialists, and this
brief, accessible volume breaks new ground in its organization,
emphasis on causation, and conclusions.
