The Revenge of Anguished English: More Accidental Assaults Upon Our Language, Paperback

This collection of verbal bloopers will have word nerds in stitches. Pulling together a hilarious array of unfortunate typos, misplaced modifiers, malapropisms, and unintended double-entendres, the grammatical gaffes of the innocent, the negligent, and the downright pompous are all brought to light. From the gas station sign stating 'eat here and get gas' to the church bulletin that reads 'attend and you will hear an excellent speaker and heave a health lunch', hundreds of linguistic blunders are gathered from every layer of society and presented in this jocular assemblage, extracted exactly as they were originally presented.
