The book is an invaluable resource for linguists, historians, and anyone interested in the evolution of the English language. With its detailed descriptions and examples of usage, A Dictionary of Slang, Jargon and Cant V2: L-Z offers a fascinating glimpse into the colorful and ever-changing world of slang and colloquial language.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
