5.0 out of 5 stars Pure Dead Brilliant, 7 Jul 2001
By A Customer
What it doesn't tell you in the synopsis, is that this is a book on that well known dialect - Glaswegian.

Could be useful for anyone confused by the likes of Rab C or Billy Connolly.

Wonderful reminder for anyone who has spent time in our fair city.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not just for Weegies. . ., 12 Oct 2007
By E. Moore (Glasgow UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
. . .but for all who savour wit and humour. The Patter is arguably one of the great unacknowledged classic dialect books of our time - it sells by the barrowload in Glasgow of course, and has done since 1988, but has universal appeal. There have been lots of imitations of The Patter - in Scotland and out - but this is the original and best.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very un-put-downable!!, 4 Jul 1999
By A Customer
I bought this for my Dad, who never reads anything. And for the past fortnigh he hasn't put it down - and is constantly quoting from in. An absolute must for 60 year old scotsmen.
