More than a century of specialist work has succeeded in shedding a great deal of light on the history and prehistory of Basque, but this work has, up until now, been almost entirely confined to specialist literature and not been available to general historical linguists. This book, written by an internationally renowned specialist in Basque, finally rectifies this problem. It provides a comprehensive survey of all that is known about the prehistory of Basque, including pronunciation, grammar and vocabulary. It also provides a long critical evaluation of the search for relatives, as well as a thumbnail sketch of the language, a summary of its typological features, an external history and an extensive bibliography.
