By: Robertson Cochrane
You know what it's like when you get that itch and you've just got to find out the origin of "charley horse" and why the mistletoe has such a silly name but such romantic powers. You also know that when you start asking around, friends and family shrug shoulders and begin to edge away. Luckily, Cochrane is a kindred spirit who's not only wondered but researched as well. Now instead of asking friends for obsolete derivations, you can read the chapters aloud instead, and share the linguistic wealth.
