The cabinet of linguistic curiosities : a yearbook of forgotten words

Jones, Paul Anthony 1983- (author.).

Summary: Paul Anthony Jones has unearthed a wealth of strange and forgotten words: illuminating some aspect of the day, or simply telling a cracking good yarn, each reveals a story. Written with a light touch that belies the depth of research it contains, this is both a fascinating compendium of etymology and a captivating historical miscellany.
