Brewer's Dictionary of Phrase and Fable view detail comment email this

As any reference librarian knows, Brewer is the first place to look for the meaning and origin of phrase and fable. And although this edition is taken from the 1898 edition of the book, many of the phrases and fables we encounter today will appear in this classic source. The text is browsable or easily searched by keywords. The site is brought to the Web by Bartleby.com, a source for many titles of classic literature.
