Such a good idea that one can only wonder why it hasn't been done before... A mine of intriguing and esoteric information, relayed with wit and erudition. A tour de force of savoir-faire and panache that should find its raison-d'etre on the bookshelf of anyone who appreciates the English language and its most influential intruder, French. Jon Henley, Paris correspondent, The Guardian. Chapeau for this delightful compendium of the French that all of us want to know and speak. Walter Wells, Executive Editor, International Herald Tribune.
