The Slang Dictionary : 



Etymological, Historical, and Anecdotal. An ENTIRELY NEW 

 EDITION, revised throughout, and considerably Enlarged. 

 " We are glad to see the Slang Dictionary reprinted and enlarged. From a high 

 scientific point of view this book is not to be despised. Of course it cannot fail to 

 be amusing also. It contains the very vocabulary of unrestrained humour, and 

 oddity, and grotesqueness. In a word, it provides valuable material both for the 

 student of language and the student of human nature." ACADEMY.
