  <description>
    <![CDATA[Shallow Water Dictionary is both a celebration of the richness of our vernacular language and a lament on its passing &#8211; and with it, the passing of the words we need to understand our shallow water regions, once the primary landscape of America and now facing extinction, both physical and linguistic. <br/>This small book is an intriguing and valuable addition to our knowledge of a changing landscape. Literary, etymological, historical, and vernacular investigations of such varied terms as &#8220;guzzle,&#8221; &#8220;creek,&#8221; and &#8220;chartreuse,&#8221; Stilgoe&#8217;s definitions are lyric explanations of words whose original meanings have been eroded by time.]]>
