Empires of the Word: A Language History of the World
When did you add the book to your TBR?
March 26, 2008
I added this book to my list the first week I had a GR account 10 years ago, bought a copy at least 7 years ago and slated it for the 2018 challenge and I *still* haven't read it! I have a feeling it is going to end up the last book of the year. I find the topic fascinating. Not sure what my hang up is about it :P
