2107 Curious Word Origins, Sayings and Expressions
This enormous collection of almost one thousand pages contains the four previously published bestselling titles, A Hog on Ice, Thereby Hangs, A Tale, Heavens to Betsy! and Horsefeathers. How did the expression "a wild goose chase" originate? Why does the word "dunce" come from the great philosopher, Duns Scotus? Dr. Funk has taken these and over 2000 other curious words, expressions and sayings that we use in our daily speech and traced them back through the years to find their amusing, practical and surprising origins. These sayings are derived from classical sources, historic events, famous literature, frontier humor and the frailties of mankind.

Do you believe in ghosts? Jerry doesn't. He's a 19-year-old American, who just wants a good holiday with his friend, Brad. They are travelling around the north of England by bicycle. But strange things begin to happen in a small hotel where they are staying. First, Brad seems to think that he has been there before. And then a girl called Ellen appears. The first of these three orginal plays is set in the seventeenth century, and the other two take place in modern times. In each play a ghost comes back from the dead to change the lives of living people.
