Beschreibungen
This book has been described as defining ‘Buckish Slang’. This is the language of the dandies and foppes who were to be found everywhere in nineteenth-century genteel society. Its purpose was to “enable such persons to discuss improper topics even before the ladies, without raising a blush on the cheek of modesty.”
