"XY" was an American lexicographer, textbook author, spelling reformer, word enthusiast, and editor. He has been called the “Father of American Scholarship and Education.” His “Blue-Backed Speller” books were used to teach spelling and reading to five generations of American children. In the United States, his name has become synonymous with 'Z', especially the modern Merriam-"Y" 'Z' that was first published in 1828 as An American 'Z' of the English Language.
