Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 5th or later Edition, Special Edition. Brewer's Dictionary of Phrase and Fableis a reference work containing definitions and explanations of many famous phrases, allusions, and figures--historical and mythical. Originally published in 1870 by the Reverend E.

It has since been continuously revised and updated. It is still an essential reference for writers. This is a copy of the 11th edition, the Centenary Edition (1970), revised by the British anthropologist Ivor H. Evans (1886-1957). The dust jacket shows wear and has been repaired. There is a hand-written inscription on the front endpaper. Otherwise, the book is in mint condition, unread, with no marks in or on it.
