About the author

Ebenezer Cobham Brewer

1810–1897

Best known for turning curiosities, myths, phrases, and literary references into lively reference books, this Victorian writer helped generations of readers make sense of allusions that might otherwise have gone over their heads. His most famous work, Dictionary of Phrase and Fable, became a long-lasting classic of popular learning.
