This work discusses the methodology of systematic Chinese dialect classification, with particular attention to the conservative Miin and Hakka groups spoken in southern China. The primary linguistic methodology employed is the historical-comparative method, and the dialects chosen as examples of classification are those spoken in and around the township of Wann'an in western Fukien's Longyan county. The book features extensive comparative tables of dialect forms, and a 200 page appendix outlining the diasystem of the four principal Wann'an dialects.
