Description

Words in Time: A Social History of English Vocabulary

The word blurb derives from a pulchritudinous young lady of that fictional name who appeared on a book-cover at the turn of the century. Quarrying the Oxford English Dictionary for its evidence this book traces the extraordinary way in which English words have changed their meanings.
