About this product
Product Information
The word €~philavery' was invented to describe this book €" a collection of words chosen simply on the grounds of their aesthetic appeal. Some of these words appeal because of their aptness, some for their obscurity, some for their euphony, and some for their quirkiness. As a collection, they represent the fruits of a lifetime of reading and will delight all word lovers.

- e***l (477)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseA book in excellent condition and very well packed to ensure a safe delivery. Great price too. It was sent out within 24 hours of me ordering. Yodel unfortunately then took 5 days to deliver it - and to the wrong address. Luckily I have good neighbours and it's here, safe and sound now. First rate service from the seller though. Many thanks.
