"Where did the phrase "a wolf in sheep's clothing" come from? And when did scientists finally get around to naming sexual body parts? The History of English squeezes 1600 years of history into 10 one-minute bites, uncovering the sources of English words and phrases from Shakespeare and the King James Bible to America and the Internet."
