Games about words and the story of English
From publisher's web page:
The Book Edition of Bethump'd with Words is a companion to the board and travel editions of the game. Its purpose is to present the history of English in a succinct and humorous but memorable form, and also provide more entertaining and enlightening questions about the language and its words...
The book also contains 44 games with 1,032 questions which, like those in the board and travel game editions, are devoted to the comical and peculiar aspects of everyday words and the story of the language. It's a 'must-have' source of supplemental questions and an armchair companion for everyone who plays and enjoys the board games.
