The Mother Tongue by Bill Bryson


  • Bryson works his magic with a topic that could easily be dry.  He brings his curiosity and storytelling to this topic as he does with any that he touches.
  • I think the alternate title of "Word Facts" would be more concise.
  • I regret my decision to ready this as an audiobook.  The narrator spelling out various forms of words was cumbersome.
  • Overall, I loved this book.
