The purpose of this book, which we belive to be unique, is to help readers through the barrage of proper names with which we are daily bombarded by journalist, broadcasters, novelists and even the man next door. We are expected to know the difference, for instance, between Billy Budd, Billy the Kid and Billy Liar; between Bluebeard, Blurbird and Blue Streak; between Birnam Wood, Burnham Beeches and the Burnham Scale.

This is both a new dictionary and a new kind of dictionary and the publication of this edition is therefore something of an event. It contains words which are in common usage in contemporary English but which, because they are proper names, do not appear in normal dictionaries. Its scope is both classical and modern (very modern in places) but always relevant to today's written and spoken English. This new approach, which the author believes is unique, has lead to the creation of a valuable new work of reference. It is also absorbingly interesting - a browser's delight. 502 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. Academic and Scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Educational Reference Literature.).
