In What’s the Difference, the distinctions between similar words are
explored. Words such as cemeteries and graveyards, cougars and pumas, oceans
and seas are explained, as well as seltzer water and club soda, milk and
buttermilk, buffalo and bison.
Words that we frequently use interchangeably often have subtle differences,
and sometimes have significantly different meanings. This book provides a
fun look into the array of words in the English language that have similar
meanings.

I very seldom read non-fiction, but I like the sound of this.
