Beschreibung:
Russell Ash is best known for his annual THE TOP TEN OF EVERYTHING and other popular reference works, but he is also the author of numerous humour titles. His extensive research work encompasses biographical studies and genealogy. RussellAsh.com
Ash has trawled the parish registers and censuses going back 900 years to bring you a collection of breathtakingly unlikely - but true - British names, such as Dick Brain and Hazel Nutt. Each name is checked for authenticity and the source is given, as well as explanatory notes providing illumination wherever possible.
Painstakingly researched, utterly true, hilariously entertaining book documenting the unusual, hilarious, silly and downright ridiculous names that have existed in Britain in the last millennium
