OverviewAlways a best-seller, enjoy two entertaining and informative language books by two fine writers. InWord Myths, author David Wilton debunks the most persistently wrong word histories, and gives the real stories behind these perennially mis-etymologized words. Word Origins is a funny, charming, and conversational book that not only tells the known origins of hundreds of words, but also shows how their origins were determined. Together, these two volumes uncover the most fascinating aspects of our language.
