Sinopsis:
An obsessive word lover provides an entertaining account of the year he spent reading the Oxford English Dictionary cover to cover, offering a colorful selection of obscure, hilarious, and offbeat vocabulary gems he discovered along the way.
Acerca del autor: Ammon Shea is the author of two previous books on obscure words, Depraved English and Insulting English (written with Peter Novobatzky). He read his first dictionary, Merriam WebsterÂ’s Second International, ten years ago, and followed it up with the sequel, WebsterÂ’s Third International.
