This is the Cryptic Companion to Bless the Buccaneer with Barbecued Blood, a unique take on the study of word origins, which aims to take a rather irreverent, and for you, the reader (I hope), humorous and entertaining, yet informative, approach to the wonderful and endlessly intriguing topic of English etymology.
Bless the Buccaneer with Barbecued Blood examines over 900 English words and their origins and histories, imagining what might be the result if the old meanings were still current, or if the modern meanings had existed in the past.
This Cryptic Companion is completely free and has almost 700 questions. If the questions intrigue you and stimulate you to find the answers, the only way to find them is to buy Bless the Buccaneer with Barbecued Blood, which is on sale here at Lulu! So don't delay, get the book and find the answers. Tell your friends and family so that you can challenge them as well. Whatever you do, have fun!
