   I know you can still buy Brewer's Dictionary of Phrase and Fable (Edited by   
   the Rev E Cobham Brewer LL D) but does it still contain this entry for   
   'snob'?   
      
   A vulgar person who apes the ways of gentlemen and truckles to those in a   
   higher social position than himself; one who is *not* a gentleman but does   
   what he can to pass himself off as such while having a contemptible respect   
   for wealth...   
      
   Reminds me acutely of my ex's brother-in-law.
