From the title page: "This is the fourth book that I have published in reponse to the clamorous appeals of the public. I had long hoped to publish a larger, better, and if possible a redder book than the first. One that would contain my better thought: thoughts that ihad thought when I was feeling well: thoughts that I had omitted when my thinker was rearing up on its hind feet, if I may be allowed that term: thoughts that sprang forth with a wild whoop and demanded recognition. This book is the result of that hope and that wish. It is my greatest and best book, Bill Nye". A large compilation of humorous thoughts and deeds accompayed by very funny illustrations. Most unusual old book. A nice copy. N° de ref. del artículo 605
