Brewer’s Dictionary of Phrase and Fable was first published in 1870. It forms the cornerstone of the Brewer’s range of books, which has been expanded recently to include a number of other related titles. Each Brewer’s book is an eclectic collection of interesting information, presented in a readable, engaging way.

Chambers is proud to have acquired the Brewer’s reference list, and will continue to publish these much-loved and respected titles under the Brewer’s name. Lose yourself in these fascinatingly eclectic and eminently browsable compendiums of language, culture, history and trivia – an essential addition to any reference collection and the perfect gift for curious bookworms.
