The Cabinet of Linguistic Curiosities: A Yearbook of Forgotten Words by Paul Anthony Jones
4.0
I admit to judging books by their covers. I am unabashedly crowlike in my attraction to pretty, shiny objects. So when I saw this, I was instantly intrigued.
What a beautiful book. Even my children found it enjoyable. Each word was a blast of fun followed by a succint historical overview. I now want to own this to use as refernce in writing, and I fully intend to read the rest of Paul Anthony Jones' works.
