Synopsis
Over 1,000 barbed and brilliant definitions by the 19th-century journalist and satirist often called 'the American Swift.'Congratulations are 'the civility of envy.' A coward is 'one who in an emergency thinks with his legs.' A historian is a 'broad-gauge gossip,' more. H. L. Mencken called these 'some of the most gorgeous witticisms in the English language.'
