## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Jolly and Tugg deserve gulpers for this one!
  

*by D***F on Reviewed in the United States on December 5, 2012*

Absolutely sheer, total, and utterly utter delight for all who have served, serve, will or may serve in the Royal Navy, and for all with merely an interest in it's affairs going beyond knowing who Nelson was.  Plus a significant contribution to the unique tradition of Jack and his inimitable ability to 'ave 'is tickler and see the bloody twelve roll on.  Captain Jolly and Tugg bring back the days that seem to disappear slowly under the pressure of awkward modernity, fiscal cuts, and political correctness.  For this book, CALL BOTH WATCHES OF HANDS!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    An amusing and important work.
  

*by R***C on Reviewed in the United States on June 18, 2012*

The armed services of every nation have their own slang and usage that grows up in separation of their parent societies. Often, it derives from historical usage and expeience. Thus, we have Surgeon Captain Rick Jolly (RN, ret)'s attempt to provide a one-volume reference for the naval veteran, new sailor, buff, and the morbidly curious alike. Reptinted three times and updated once in 1999, the book serves as a collection of snapshots of all things British navy going back to at least the Second World War. Highly recommended as a standard reference.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Great book.

Awesome book for British Naval Slang virgins. Full of information and illustrations. Love that you can also reference other words/phrases easily.
