Amelia B. Edwards wrote this historical travelogue in in 1873. The book describes her travels through a relatively un-visited area in the South Tyrol district of Italy. The Dolomites are a part of that most famous of mountain chains, the Alps. In this book, the Writer and her friend and companion, L., travel from Southern Italy, having over-wintered there, to visit the Dolomite district. Her chatty style, dry sense of humor, accuracy of facts, and sympathy for humanity set her works apart. The slice of Victorian British life presented is quite captivating.  
She would later travel throughout Europe and Egypt at a time when most women didn't leave home. Later she was to become one of the pioneering Egyptologists of the age. This is her first travelogue.

Jonathan Swift's A Modest Proposal - Unabridged - cover

Jonathan Swift's A Modest...

"A Modest Proposal" is author Jonathan Swift's infamous and shocking satirical essay in which he suggests that the plight of the poor in Ireland could be eased if they simply agreed to sell their children to the elites of society to be used as food.   
Swift, disgusted by the apparent disdain and apathy exhibited by the ruling classes over the sufferings of the poor in Ireland used this essay to lampoon and attack the Protestant leaders, whose anti-Catholic policies were causing hardship and famine in his own country. A classic use of Juvenalian satire (wherein the objects of the satire are made to appear monstrous and heartless), "A Modest Proposal" has become such a famous treatise that the title itself has become a synonym for such satire today.   
Swift's brilliant and hard-hitting essay is presented here in its original and unabridged format and includes a brief biography of Jonathan Swift.

Don't Forget to Flush is John Eaton's second collection of humorous verse. It is an eclectic collection of poems that will make you laugh, ponder, and perhaps rethink your worldview - all from the comfort of the "small room".   
 
Eaton sees the world through a unique lens. His work spans topics far and wide: the quirks of human nature, the wonders of the natural world, the nuances of politics, and the intricacies of relationships. You'll enjoy his mischievous pen as he skewers pretension, roots for the underdog, and manages to take on current events with a wink and a nod.  
 
This latest collection includes 116 amusing and creative poems.  Examples include:  
 
Billly and Benny (the Flowerpot Men-ny), a tribute to terracotta friends; 
 
Jackboot and Jillboot - lighthearted odes to his-and-hers' footwear; 
 
The collection also tackles national news with cheeky humour.  
 
"Barnard Castle is the place to be, 
A pleasant journey for my family 
Where I can quarantine flexibly 
To test my eyesight specifically." 
(continued).' 
 
And things that are neither here or there ... 
 
"I went to a rendezvous to see Ron Devue. 
I thought I had deja vu but jamais vu."
