The Meaning of Everything - The Story of the Oxford English Dictionary
Winchester, Simon
$25.00

A kelptomaniac, the nephew of a French Emperor, the creator of an imaginary land inhabited by small hairy creatures, a homicidal lunatic, an Esperanto enthusiast, the man who introduced the camel to the Wild West, the captain of an all-ladies sculling team, a hermit, and the son of a Scottish draper... Just who were these people and what connected them to the world's greatest dictionary?
