When your contempt has reached classical proportions, crude Anglo-Saxon expletives just won’t cut the mustard. Learn to express your outrage in the words of such late, great Romans as Horace, Cicero, Virgil, and Ovid — guys who could “dis” with class! Unapologetically quoting these famous Latin writers entirely out of context, the authors have compiled a witty, wicked little lexicon of insults and invective that will soon have you demeaning, defaming, and degrading your enemies with real “animus.” 6 1/2″ x 7 1/4″. Black-and-white illustrations.
