Devil's Dictionary
Ambrose Bierce
overblik
Begun in a weekly paper in 1881, The Devil's Dictionary was continued with some intervals until 1906, when it was first published as The Cynic's Word Book. It is an irreverant dictionary which was so popular in its time that many definitions and anecdotes became part of popular speech. Wickedly humorous, it still has relevance today. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
