The Foot Book / El libro del pie
The next volume of the Illustrated Dictionary of Proto-Indo-European is now available. In this book, we trace the word for foot used thousands of years ago to dozens of words we use today. The etymologies take us from the mounatins of Italy to the ocean depths, from the Spanish Civil War to Greek tragedy, and from Moroccan shoemakers to a Parisian circus. You can order directly here. If you enjoy the book, please leave a review on Amazon. It really does help get the word out.
