A Cursory History of Swearing by Julian Sharman

Did not finish book. Stopped at 30%.

I'm actually very interested in the history and linguistics of swearing, but this book isn't a proper study, it doesn't cite its sources. I believe it's too old for that and doesn't take its subject matter seriously enough. I'm sure it has cultural significance in its own way, but it just wasn't what I was looking for.
