As in the first volume of Strange Bedfellows etymologically related words most surprisingly so (strange bedfellows) are used to construct amusing and/or amazing pairs phrases whole sentences essays and nonsense stories. Most are accompanied by silly comments tall tales with recurring characters poems fake news and ads. A larger dose of satire than in vol.1 is also included with a number of Trump send-ups. Again there is a large appendix citing many other etymological surprises.
