A Pickle for the Knowing Ones

"A Pickle for the Knowing Ones" by Timothy Dexter is an autobiographical book published in 1802. This eccentric work contains almost no punctuation, unorthodox spelling, and chaotic grammar throughout its pages. The wealthy American businessman rants about politicians and clergy while praising his own glory and suggesting he should be emperor of the United States. After complaints about missing punctuation, Dexter added a second edition with pages of punctuation marks in the appendix, inviting readers to use them as they pleased.
