The Adventure of English - Melvyn Bragg
English is the collective work of millions of people throughout the ages. English runs through the heart of world finance, medicine and the Internet, and it is understood by around two thousand million people across the world. It is democratic, ever-changing and ingenious in its assimilation of other cultures.
In this book Melvyn Bragg shows us the remarkable story of the English language; from its beginnings as a minor guttural Germanic dialect to its position today as a truly established global language. Yet it was very nearly wiped out in its early years. THE ADVENTURE OF ENGLISH is not only an enthralling story of power, religion and trade, but also the story of people, and how their day-to-day lives shaped and continue to change the extraordinary language that is English.
