Book Reviews of British English A to Zed (Facts on File Writer's Library)
Book Review: A funny & informative book
Summary: 5 Stars
An excellent book to enlighten anyone about the many different meanings of common words. A good book to take along, on your trip. Miss-understandings & confusion over what is meant, can be kept to a minimum. "British English" isn't "American English", there are many important differences. Purchase this book before your trip, you will be glad that you did.
