''Plea For An American Language'' is a book written by Elias Molee that argues for the creation of a unique American language. The author suggests that the English language, which is currently the dominant language in the United States, is not sufficient to express the nuances of American culture and identity. Molee proposes that a new language should be developed that incorporates elements of the various languages spoken by immigrants to the United States, as well as indigenous languages. The book explores the history of language in America and the challenges that arise when attempting to create a new language. Molee also discusses the potential benefits of a unique American language, including increased cultural understanding and a stronger sense of national identity. The book is a thought-provoking exploration of language and identity in America, and offers a unique perspective on the role of language in shaping culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
