Pull up a bollard and get to know the colourful language of the Royal
Canadian Navy. Do you ever get channel fever so bad only a great
homeward bounders will cure you? Have you ever met Tug Wilson the
brass-pounder, Dusty Miller the blanket stacker, or Nobby Clark the
stoker? From aback to zizEX, the second edition of Jackspeak of the
Royal Canadian Navy gives readers a chance to fill their boots with
the colourful language of Canada’s senior service. Learn the
difference between duff and no duff, box kickers and gut robbers, and
Nelson’s blood and Neptune’s dandruff. Newly revised and expanded,
with over 2,500 terms included!
