Vocabulum; or The Rogue's Lexicon


Book Description

'Vocabulum; or The Rogue's Lexicon' by George W. Matsell is a fascinating insight into the language used by rogues and criminals, compiled by the former Chief of Police of New York City. Matsell's interest in the language of thieves began as a means of better understanding the criminals he was tasked with apprehending, but soon evolved into a laborious project of compiling a comprehensive lexicon of cant words and phrases. This language, with its roots in the ancient gypsy tongue, has evolved over time to become a vital tool for both criminals and law enforcement alike. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history and origins of this intriguing and often misunderstood subculture.

Rogues in the Gallery


Book Description

Rogues in the Gallery exposes it all: the cozy insurance ransom racket, the professional gangs of art thieves, the specialists, the connections with the international drug racket and the Mafia. Hugh McLeave has researched the whys and wherefores of the question for years, drawing on resources available to him through agencies such as Interpol, the FBI, the French Sret(r), and Scotland Yard. Rogues in the Gallery is a lively and informed account of the causesOCoand limited curesOCoof this epidemic. It charts the classic outbreaks, portrays the rich gallery of protagonists, and defines what means there are to combat the disease. But even with sophisticated computers and Interpol, the total elimination of art theft is unlikely. As long as auction prices continue to rise and inflation devalues savings, the theft of precious objects will flourish. The lure of easy money is at the root. This is a serious book on an urgent problem, especially for those who collect art. For an author bio, photo, and a sample read visit bosonbooks.com"

The Great Conversion: How Paul Stole Christianity From Jesus Christ And Turned It Into An Anti Christ Religion


Book Description

Ever wondered why nice talking Christians hate more, discriminate more,kill more, do more evil and commit more financial fraud than any religious people on Earth, cannot obey Christ or ever be like Jesus Christ? Jesus Christ is NOT a Christian. Christians are followers of Paul, not Jesus. They are followers of Paul, a Turkish con man who faked his Christian conversion, appointed himself as an apostle of the Christian faith, used fake credentials to infiltrate the early Christian churches, polluted their teachings with pre existing pagan philosophies, used the name of Jesus to turn Christianity away from Christ, stole Christianity and turned it into an anti Christ religion and left his 419 records as the majority of the bible books you now read in your testament bible books. Interestingly, the letters of Paul has been structurally found to be patterned after the letters the Greek pagans of his days, borrowed from their pagan African compatriots of Egypt, see the G Milligan’s ‘Selections From the Greek Papyri’, 36 as quoted in page XV of Rev William Barclays’ book, ‘The Letters to the Galatians and Ephesians’, by the Saint Andrew press of Edinburg. Rev William Barclay, a doctor of divinity was lecture in New Testament language and literature and in Hellenistic Greek in the University of Glasgow. This explains why over 2000 years after Jesus commanded his followers to love one another, love their neighbours,love their enemies, do good to haters, bless, the cursers, go the extra mile and turn the other cheek of tolerance when faced with oppression, pray for users and abusers of their love. No Christian group has obeyed Jesus Christ and NONE will ever obey him. Discover how Paul stole Christianity from Christ and turned it into an anti Christ religion.
