hardcover. Condición: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

This book is a portrait of the twentieth century through the quotable word of the people who lived it. Nigel Rees tells the stories behind 750 well-known phrases and sayings that have emerged ion the course of the twentieth century. This is no ordinary dictionary of quotations, however. The sayings have not been chosen to form a comprehensive collection (though most of the significant ones you would expect to find ate included) but on the basis of whether there is anything especially interesting to be said about their origins and use. In other words, this is an annotated choice from among the century's most memorable and amusing sayings. In a strongly personal selection, Nigel Rees includes quotations from Kings and Queens, presidents and Prime Ministers, as well as frequently-quoted phrases that have arisen from two World Wars, space travel, exploration, sport and enteratinment. Special sections review the words of notably-quotable figures such as Churchill, Shaw, De Gaulle and Mao Tse-tung. Illustrated. 270 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.).…
