The compiler of this dictionary of word and phrase origins and history was not only a linguist and a philologist but also a man of culture and wit. It contains one of the largest lists of words and phrases to be found in any singly etymological dictionary — and considerably more material than in the standard concise edition, with fuller quotes and historical discussions.
