SAY CHIC...C'est magnifique! Ever wonder why some French words have become so common in English as to be clichés? Or why your witty repartee wouldn't be quite so witty without them? In Say Chic, Françoise Blanchard and Jeremy Leven collect more than seventy familiar French words and phrases that have become a permanent part of the American vocabulary. In their clever, often amusing style, the authors explain the origin of each word, its meaning, and how it came to be adopted into English. Uniting the sensibilities of an American author and a French author, these surprisingly entertaining stories combine world history, pop culture, etymology, and pithy observations about Americans and the French, with no small amount of panache. Featuring delightful illustrations, Say Chic will find its raison d'être on the bookshelf of anyone who has ever longed to be an American in Paris and hankers for a bit more of that irresistible je ne sais quoi in America.

In the heart of the Buckeye State, nestled amongst the corn and soy bean fields lies one of the most colorful rural communities in the United States. In Amazing Ashville, you’ll find a guide to all the weird and wonderful aspects of this Ohio community unlike any other, just waiting for you to unearth its uncounted mysteries. Read countless true tales of small town lore, like the dog who voted Republican, the rooster that paid for his own meals, the egg laid by an artistic goose, or the coin collector who was served in a soup. This rural community is the home of the first automated highway tests, the world’s largest woman, and the original Spiderman. Local author Bob Hines takes you on a fascinating tour of the community he’s proud to call home. You may not have ever experienced Ashville’s unusual traffic light that has found its way into Guinness World Records, but with Amazing Ashville to lead you, you’ll want to stop by for much longer than it takes the light to change.
