"It is a damn poor mind that can think of only one way to spell a
word." -- Andrew Jackson
Weird or wierd? Necessary or neccessary? Recomend or recommend?
English spelling is fiendish, but that doesn't mean you can't have
fun with it.
Accomodating Brocolli in the Cemetary is at once a celebration
of spelling and a solace to anyone who has ever struggled with the
arcane rules of the English language. As amusing as he is
informative, Vivian Cook thrills the reader with more than a
hundred entries -- from photographs of hilariously misspelled signs
to quizzes best taken in private to schadenfreude-rich examples of
spelling errors of literary greats -- that will tickle the inner
spelling geek in every reader.
It all adds up to a gem of a book that takes a wry look at the
hodgepodge evolution of spelling and the eccentric way it actually
works.
