Slang To-Day and Yesterday; With a Short Historical Sketch; and Vocabularies of English American and Australian Slang
London UK: Routledge and Kegan Paul LTD 1960 Routledge and Kegan Paul LTD London UK. 1960. Hardcover. Stated 3rd Edition Revised 2nd Time Printed in 1960. Book is tight square and unmarked. Book Condition: light bumping to head and tail; light edgewear; light wear of gilt lettering. No DJ. Maroon boards and spine with gilt lettering on spine. 476 pp 4to. Slang is easy to use but very hard to write about as it is a peculiar kind of vagabond language always hanging on the outskirts of legitimate speech. Slang is the quintessence of colloquial speech and is related more to convenience than to scientific laws grammatical rules and philosophical ideals. A clean very presentable copy.

Eric Partridge [Ed.]
The Three Wartons: A Choice of Their Verse
London: The Scholartis Press 1927 . First edition. Cloth. Very Good. 9" by 6". None. The author's presentation copy of this collection of verse from Thomas Warton the Elder and his sons Thomas Warton the Younger and Joseph Warton inscribed by the editor Eric Partridge to fellow author Edward Thompson. First edition.Bound in the publisher's quarter cloth with paper-covered boards. Inscribed by Partridge to the author Edward Thompson "To Edward Thompson no grubber in respectable admiration from an unwilling grubber the editor. October 6 1934". In this work Eric Partridge has put together a selection of verse by the Three Wartons; Thomas Warton the Elder and his two sons Thomas Warton the Younger and Joseph Warton. Up until this publication there were very few reprints of the Warton's work so Partridge aimed to bring light to this and give a selection of poetry from all three Wartons. Thomas Warton the Elder was an English clergyman and a professor of poetry at Oxford. Joseph Warton and Thomas Warton the Younger were both well-known for their academia in English with the latter being appointed Poet Laureate in 1785. Partridge included many of their verse as well as a note and a select bibliography of the Warton's work. Bound in the publisher's quarter cloth with paper-covered boards. Externally generally smart with rubbing to extremities and some fading to the boards and spine. A little loss to paper to the front board. Ink inscription to front endpaper. Internally firmly bound with bright clean pages. Very Good The Scholartis Press hardcover
