I have tried to make this book an historic presentation and discussion of some of the most common, revealing, and interesting words and phrases Americans have used. I have tried to chronicle our words and phrases from such sources as: books, newspapers, magazines, official documents, letters, diaries, songs, radio programs, movies, and television shows.
