amazon – The  1811 Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue,  was written by Francis Grose (a British soldier) just after the American Revolution. The word "vulgar" means slang, though some of them are vulgar. This book was banned in military camps at the time. This book is hysterical, both educational and entertaining. It shows how normal people spoke over 200 years ago, and provides endless possibilities for insulting friends. It is an old dictionary of words that will "pitch kettle" (confound) people if you actually use them, and others are still around, like "to catch a crab" (to fall backwards by missing ones stroke in rowing). If you are into quirky dictionaries like this, then youll enjoy it.
https://www.rjjulia.com/ – 1811 Dictionary in the Vulgar Tongue is a great book by Francis Grose . A dictionary Of buckish slang, university wit, and pickpocket eloquence, from 1811, featuring various vulgar words and their definitions. Completely hilarious The merit of Captain Groses Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue has been long and universally acknowledged. But its circulation was confined almost exclusively to the lower orders of society: he was not aware, at the time of its compilation, that our young men of fashion would at no very distant period be as distinguished for the vulgarity of their jargon as the inhabitants of Newgate; and he therefore conceived it superfluous to incorporate with his work the few examples of fashionable slang that might occur to his observation. 1811 Dictionary by Francis Grose is a novel highly recommended to read.
