Hash House Lingo The Slang of Soda Jerks, Short-Order Cooks, Bartenders, Waitresses, Carhops and Other Denizens of Yesterday’s Roadside Jack SmileyWith an Introduction by Paul Dickson
Originally published in 1941, this pocket-sized volume is a rare and valuable source of infor-mation on the language of diners and roadside restaurants during their golden age in the ’30s and ’40s. From “all hot” (baked potato) and “dog soup” (water) to “perk” (coffee) and “yanker” (dentist), the long-lost terms are part fascinating, part funny, and often politically incorrect by today’s standards. Features a new Introduction by Paul Dickson and historic photos from the Library of Congress.
Reprint of the edition published by the author, Easton, Pennsylvania, 1941.
