Hatchet Jobs and Hardball
Hatchet Jobs And Hardball: The Oxford Dictionary Of American Political
Slang by Grant Barrett is the perfect book for a political junkie.
Written by a lexicographer for Oxford University Press, it's billed as
"a savvy guide to political lingo" which "breaks down all the terms
anyone could need to understand the D.C. chatterati." The book "defines
more than 600 slang words. And though the definitions are clear and easy
to understand, the real fun lies in the historical citations, which
refer to films and books as often as to newspapers and congressional
reports."
