In the main most books will have gone through the editing process however some may not. We therefore suggest that you be aware of this before ordering this book.

As in the first volume of Strange Bedfellows, etymologically related words, most surprisingly so (strange bedfellows), are used to construct amusing and/or amazing pairs, phrases, whole sentences, essays and nonsense stories. Most are accompanied by silly comments, tall tales with recurring characters, poems, fake news and ads. A larger dose of satire than in vol.1 is also included, with a number of Trump send-ups. Again there is a large appendix citing many other etymological surprises.
