Accents of English is about the way English is pronounced by different people in diffeent places. Volume I provides a synthesizing introduction, which shows how accents vary not only geographically, but also with social class, formality, sex and age; and in volumes 2 and 3 the author examines in greater depth the various accents used by people who speak English as their mother tongue: the accents of the regions of England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland (volume 2), and of the USA, Canada, and West Indies, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, India, Black Africa and the Far East (volume 3). Each volume can be read independently, and together they form a major scholarly survey of considerable originality, which not only includes descriptions of hitherto neglected accents, but also examines the implications for phonological theory. -- Publisher description
Includes bibliographical references (v. 1, pages 265-270) and index
1. An introduction -- 2. The British Isles -- 3. Beyond the British Isles

Dear station.24.cebu, grateful if you kindly amend the description to state that this is volume 2, "Accents of English: The British Isles", of a three-volume
...
set.
Confusingly, the Contents lists what's in all three volumes.... but this is definitely the second.
Kind regards, & really appreciate the uploads!
