Made in America: An Informal History of the English Language in the United States


Readers from Toad Suck, Arkansas, to Idiotsville, Oregon--and everywhere in between--will love iMade in America/i, Bill Bryson's iInformal History of the English Language in the United States./i It is, in a word, fascinating. After reading this tour de force, it's clear that a nation's language speaks volumes about its true character: you are what you speak. Bryson traces America's history through the language of the time, then goes on to discuss words culled from everyday activities: immigration, eating, shopping, advertising, going to the movies, and others. p
