I have to admit to being a bit of an anglophile. So when I came across this blog today while researching the true story of William Wilberforce, I was simply delighted. One of the authors at Brits at their Best, Sharing the Inheritance, asserts that this inheritance includes...
liberty, love of God, reason, imagination, fair play, a generous and forgiving
spirit, the rule of just law, representative government, books, gardens, music,
art, sports, inventions. . .
I couldn't agree more!
Then I found this guide to British slang. That could come in quite handy when my husband and I watch our favorite British murder mysteries.
And if I find out anything interesting about WW, that will be a post for another day. I loved the movie, Amazing Grace. My inquiring mind simply wants to know how close it comes to the actual facts and where/how it was tweaked.
