Narcotics and Narcotics Addictionwas a standard book in the field and saw four editions from 1954 to 1971. It is distinguished from the many period books on the subject by its extensive glossary of words and phrases used by addicts and in the illegal drugs trade (60 pages in this third edittion).
Philologist and pioneer sociolinguist who did pioneer work in the argot of the underworld, Maurer was for decades Professor of English and the Humanities at the University of Louisville. In his The Big Con (Bobbs-Merrill, 1940) "he describes in intriguing detail the operation of the big con in various settings" [Patterson Smith, "The Literature of Frauds and Swindles", AB, 1997, 99:17, p.1368]. The screenplay of The Sting so closely borrowed from Maurer's book that he sued for $10,000,000 for copyright infringement. The suit was settled out of court.
