"Throughout history, events great and small have left their mark on the way we speak. Starting from 1066 and working through to the modern-day green movement, with a nod towards the invention of playing cards, the California Gold Rush and the first recorded blizzard along the way, The Chronology of Words and Phrases links hundreds of words and phrases with the historical upheavals and minor social changes which gave them life. A words book for historians and a history book for wordsmiths, it will have pride of place in any book lover's collection."--BOOK JACKET.
