This title includes not only a dictionary of the words used in Gayle, but also an historical record of the language, its development, its form and its various functions, none of which have been documented before and little of which information has previously been made publicly available.

MEDIA REVIEWS
"Varda that Beulah! What a lunch! Such a picnic basket! Vast Mitzi. I'd love to Sally her, but she looks so Dora. She's a chicken, and probably Rita to boot, or maybe even Priscilla, and I don't need Jennifer Justice in my life right now. - And who needs a visit from Auntie Aida? I suppose I'll have to go home and Tilly - the lot of an Olga pixie!"
