    Book Description:
    This beautifully packaged and accessible guide is the perfect companion to learning the phrases of London's East End and the interesting origins behind Cockney Rhyming Slang—a language first invented as a secret code among the thieves of London's underworld. Organized thematically, the book allows the reader to gain a full understanding of how to use a range of cockney phrases, covering the popular, traditional phrases, such as "apples and pears"—stairs, "Barnet Fair"—hair, and "sausage and mash"—crash, and some more modern additions.
