John Ayto, British, author of many reference works, mostly concerning the
origin of words and names, like The Dictionary of Word Origins, The Oxford
Dictionary of Slang, some translations from Middle English I believe, and
the work I´m quoting from, A Gourmet´s Guide, which is mostly concerned with
the origin and development of food terms. A valuable and entertaining work
in my opinion, and one I´ve made much use of. For some reason it was earlier
published as both The Diner´s Dictionary and The Glutton´s Glossary.
