This book is all about the symbols we use every day and the incredible stories behind why they mean what they mean. Taking in ancient graffiti, medieval shorthand, New York advertising men, great orators, rogues, rebels and pioneers, Shady Characters reveals how a series of strange signs, shapes and squiggles have (often literally) shaped our language.
