The book Poems Of Rural Life In The Dorset Dialect, With A Dissertation And Glossary by William Barnes is a collection of poems written in the Dorset dialect, a regional language spoken in the rural areas of Dorset, England.

The author, William Barnes, was a Dorset-born poet and philologist who was passionate about preserving the local dialect and culture. The book also includes a dissertation on the history and characteristics of the Dorset dialect, as well as a glossary of the dialect words used in the poems. This book is a valuable resource for those interested in the history and culture of rural England, as well as for linguists and dialectologists.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
