''A Vocabulary of Criminal Slang: With Some Examples of Common Usages'' is a book written by Louis E. Jackson and originally published in 1914. The book is a comprehensive guide to the slang and jargon used by criminals and the underworld in the early 20th century. It includes a wide range of terms and phrases, from the obscure and specialized to the more common and widely used. The book is organized alphabetically by term and provides definitions, examples of usage, and sometimes etymologies. The author, Louis E. Jackson, was a journalist and criminologist who spent many years studying the language and culture of criminals.
