Mother Tongue by Bill Bryson

ISBN: 9780141037462 PUBLISHER: Penguin Books Ltd FORMAT: Paperback PAGES: 288 PUBLICATION DATE: 1.09.2008 DIMENSIONS: 181mmX111mm

DESCRIPTION: Bill Bryson's Mother Tongue is a hymn to the English language. In examining how a second-rate, mongrel tongue came to be the undisputed language of the globe, Bryson explores English from America to Australia and looks at, among other things, swearing, spelling, spoonerisms and Scrabble. No self-respecting English speaker should open his mouth without reading it.
