QPB Encyclopedia of Word and Phrase Origins

After reading about this book and how it was better than many of its competitors, I purchased a copy. I was somewhat disappointed due to the several omissions and the seemingly unnecessary inclusion of other words and phrases. Most dictionaries will cite the origins of state names for example, so why include them here? Conversely phrases like "our neck of the woods" or "your turn in the barrel" are omitted. All in all, it has many common phrases hence it remains useful. I'm simply saying it could have been better.
