These two irresistibly entertaining vocabulary collections (from the judicious editors of the American Heritage dictionaries) are like candy for language buffs—I devoured both in one sitting! 100 Words Almost Everyone Confuses and Misuses will elicit satisfying exclamations of "aha!" as it elucidates common usage errors. 100 Words Every Word Lover Should Know delights the reader with words chosen for their interesting history, sounds, and/or meanings. Both books include scores of great quotations from classical and contemporary writers that demonstrate the featured words in context. Treat yourself or a word-junkie you know to this pair of delectable little volumes!
