1881 Dictionary of Vulgar Tounge

15th January 2007 by Simon

I came across the 1881 Dictionary of Vulgar Tounge, by Captain Grosse, otherwise know by its full title, A dictionary of buckish slang, university wit and pickpocket eloquence.

What a great book, one I’d like to have in the original print.

How splendid to find it on Gutenberg
