Plu-Ri-Bus-Tah: A Song That�������s By No Author, A Deed Without A Name is a book written by Doesticks, Q. K. Philander in 1856. The book is a collection of humorous and satirical essays and stories that poke fun at various aspects of American society and culture. The title of the book is a play on the Latin phrase ''E pluribus unum'' (Out of many, one), which appears on the Great Seal of the United States. The book is divided into several sections, each of which focuses on a different topic, such as politics, religion, and social norms. The author uses a pseudonym, Doesticks, which is a play on the phrase ''do sticks'' (meaning to perform tricks or pranks). Overall, the book is a witty and entertaining commentary on American life in the mid-19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
