Great PBS series: The Story of English...
...made a case for AE and UKE as seperate dialects of the same language.
Also pointed out that he spoken English of Shakespeare's day had many similarities to what we consider Southern USA dialect in terms of pronunciation and inflection.
Must be a book or a website about it somewhere.
Also Robert McNeal (Canadian cum USA American) did a series on Do You Speak American? that was limited to regions of the USA...great stuff.
