Description

What does the old American catchphrase “according to Gunter” mean? Where does the word “highfalutin” come from? Combing world literature for oddities not easily accessible to the general reader, the author offers a delightful A-Z compendium of quaint and curious lore, legend, fact, trivia, and history: a browser’s delight.
