Sobre mimI am a lexicographer of anglophone slang; the most recent of my books being Chambers Slang Dictionary (a third revised and expanded edition of the original Cassells Dictionary of Slang, 1998) which was published in October 2008. For those who like to keep it further down and a good deal dirtier, I have also just published Getting Off at Gateshead: The Stories Behind the Dirtiest Words and Phrases in the English Language (Quercus).
I am currently working on a multi-volume, fully cited dictionary of slang 'on historical principles' which will be published by Chambers in 2010.

Sobre a minha bibliotecaA core of slang-related reference works; a large group of books which I not merely read but from which I glean citations (i.e, pulp, crime and hard-boiled fiction of various ages and quality) biographies, history, lowlife, cities, 'non-slang' fiction, rats and all the rest...the agglomeration of a lifetime of loving books.
