“Vastly informative and vastly entertaining…A scholarly and fascinating book.” —Los Angeles Instances
With dazzling wit and astonishing perception, Invoice Bryson explores the exceptional historical past, eccentricities, resilience and sheer enjoyable of the English language.
From the primary descent of the larynx into the throat (why you’ll be able to discuss however your canine can’t), to the superb misplaced artwork of swearing, Bryson tells the fascinating, typically uproarious story of an insufficient, second-rate tongue of peasants that developed into one of many world’s largest development industries.
