Subject: New Book



A graduate student of mine reviewed Charles L. Cutler's *O Brave New Words: Na

tive American Loanwords in English* (Norman: U of Oklahoma P, 1994) for class;

called it "a fantastic, interesting book that seems to answer every possible q

uestion about Native American loanwords in English, listing every conceivable w

ord or phrase and when it was borrowed." I, of course, am suspicious of the st

udent's enthusiasm. Has anyone seen the book? Is it really as good as my stud

ent says?
