The Professor and the Madman

Very good read. Historical, interesting, and even a little oddly endearing. I was sad it was over. It was a great story of two men both of whom were integral in putting the Oxford English Dictionary together. One of whom was crazy. Literally. One wouldn't really think a book about the creation of a dictionary would be anything but dull, but even for those who don't love words would enjoy this. Though I'm lucky to just adore them, so that was fun.
