A Classical Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue

Explore the colorful underworld of 18th-century England with this 1992 Dorset Press edition of Captain Francis Grose’s “A Classical Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue,” edited by the legendary Eric Partridge. This volume is a reprint of the 1796 third edition, the last revised by Grose himself. It is an indispensable (and often hilarious) reference for anyone interested in historical slang, from “beard splitter” to “pissing pins and needles.” Condition: • Hardcover: Good condition with tight binding. • Dust Jacket: Present; shows some minor shelf wear and light creasing at the extremities. • Internals: Pages are clean and unmarked. Some light foxing/spotting to the top edge of the text block.
