A rich collection of word origin trivia and an entertaining primer on classical times, It's Greek To Me shows just how much of our language we owe to the ancient Greeks and Romans. Familiar phrases such as "all in the same boat", "charity begins at home", and "time flies", have their roots in these ancient cultures. A companion volume to the bestselling Brush Up Your Shakespeare. 40 line drawings.
