Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book consists of an eclectic collection of Victorian-era anecdotes, limericks, riddles, puns, epitaphs and other curiosities. These fascinating linguistic relics cover a wide range of subjects, from high-society scandals and duels fought over minor slights to quack medical advice, ridiculous laws, and wordplay that reveals a mischievous and surprisingly modern wit, despite the passage of time. The author draws upon newspapers, memoirs, and other sources from the period to weave together a compelling picture of the more eccentric and humorous side of Victorian life. This book will appeal to word-lovers, history buffs, and anyone with a taste for the absurd.
