This Guide is an illustrated miscellany of words and phrases of interest and use to ‘voreigners’ (anyone born outside Somerset) and 'grockles' (holiday makers in Somerset).

Jeremy Warburg and Tessa Lorant lived in Somerset for many years…and were therefore not complete ‘voreigners’. Quite a few of these words will have gone out of use since this book was first published, making it a charming reminder of the not-too-distant past.
