Why Do We Say It? von Barnes & Noble Books
The historical and linguistic origins on many common sayings.
They seem to sometimes just guess or make things up.
A gift, with the fuller description being "the stories behind the words, expressions and cliches we use." Found it to be interesting, but not something one would read cover to cover. Is arranged alphabetically should one wish to look up a certain phrase.
