(Edgar Wilson) Remarks Text file produced by Charles Franks, Beth Trapaga and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team Illustrated HTML file produced by David Widger "Remarks" by Bill Nye is a humorous collection of essays and anecdotes written during the late 19th century. The book is presented in a light-hearted, satirical style reminiscent of the author’s stage performances, engaging the reader with Nye's witty observations on a variety of topics ranging from personal reflections and societal norms to historical figures and events. The opening of the book introduces Bill Nye's humorous tone as he reflects on the origins of his literary journey and addresses the nature of the work he has compiled. He shares amusing stories from his educational past, recounting moments like his reliance on a knot-hole to aid his memory in school and the competitive spirit he encountered with classmates. Nye's writing is characterized by lively anecdotes, such as his somnambulistic adventures and a tongue-in-cheek critique of Noah Webster's dictionary, which he wittily suggests lacks the engaging narrative qualities found in his own literary endeavors. The opening sets the stage for a light-hearted exploration of various subjects, promising readers an entertaining and insightful journey through Nye's unique perspective on life and literature.
