Socio- And Stylolinguistic Perspectives on American Indian English Texts

In nine studies he has retrieved from various journals and unpublished conference presentations, Bartelt (sociolinguistics, California State U.-Northridge) draws on his experience teaching English to American Indian college students and subsequent research into a number of Indian English topics involving both spoken and written texts. He helps fill the gap he finds in the investigation of second-language learning usually European by American Indians. The text is double spaced. Annotation c.
