Editorial Reviews

John Julius Norwich
"I have been waiting for this book for half a century - not only indispensable for reference, but perfect for the bedside, as all really good dictionaries should be."

William Rees-Mogg
"This dictionary is a work of scholarship, a work of reference, and a delight to dip into ."

Robert Robinson
"All the phrases you were never quite sure of - ab ovo usque ad mala. For the reader or writer, for the gratin or the hoi polloi, this is the indispensable vade mecum. Buy it -mandamus!"

Anthony Lejeune has clearly researched this well, providing a reference book which not only backs you up on those quotes you're not sure on but is also a great read! Excellent as a gift.
