A concise dictionary of slang and unconventional English : from a Dictionary of slang and unconventional English by Eric by Paul Beale
Provides detailed explanations for the odd and unusual words and expressions you come across when least expected. Written to include selections across cultures this book is especially useful for the reader of historical and sociological world literature. It is not unusual to come across a known word or expression with a completely different meaning than is generally accepted. A dictionary worth reading.
Indispensable and hugely entertaining. Every page a source of delight.
