Every now and then I like to look at books that look at the
history of language from one standpoint or another. In Our Magnificent Bastard Tongue John McWhorter takes a look at the “untold history of English”. He explores the origins of the language and
how circumstances changed it to what we know today.
We are a branch of the Los Angeles Public Library located in Highland Park. Keep yourself updated on our doings here...
