Started reading yesterday, and am already enjoying this tour of the history of the English language.
Journal Entry 2 by tutmarie from Roskilde, Roskilde Amt Denmark on Monday, April 9, 2007
Finished reading the book last night. It's an enjoyable and funny read about the history of the English language. Hugely entertaining with lots of anecdotes and examples. It is for entertainment and not academic - it has been criticised for containing factual errors. It was written in 1990, and I kept thinking what it would have been like had it been written now - after the invention of the Internet.
