    Calamity strikes when the precious gift of a white elephant from the King of Siam to the Queen of England is stolen in America. But it is the hilarious antics of the detectives trying to track down the beast which occupies us. As the rampaging elephant heads east, or maybe west, or possibly north or south, it leaves a trail of death and destruction. But it seems that not even the finest detectives in the land and offers of ever greater rewards can pinpoint the animal's whereabouts. Until finally it turns up in the least likely place of all...

    The ubiquitous butler, Jeeves, comes to the rescue of his new master, Bertie Wooster, from a fate worse than death, so they say. And in the second tale, poor Bertie is summarily dispatched to New York, by an overbearing aunt, to extract his cousin from an amorous affair with a vaudeville artiste! How absolutely dreadful! Jeeves’ managing of affairs offers such wonderful amusing stories that make us laugh and enjoy his ingenuity to the fullest.

    Are you living above your circumstances, or are you crushed beneath their weight? Curt Ghormley was ambushed by AML (Acute Myeloid Leukemia) and determined to meet it with optimism, humor, and steely grit. Drawing on Christian principles and the memoir of his own life experiences, he teases out the lessons for dealing effectively with an unexpected and deadly fight with an unseen enemy. In this book, he presents eight rules for living victoriously in the shadow of the medical death sentence of a fast-moving cancer. 
In between your tears, this book is laugh-out-loud funny! 
Don’t miss the war stories. Ghormley is a history buff and liberally illustrates his subject with World War II experiences from his own father in the U.S. Navy, and those of others. At once light-hearted, uplifting, Biblical, poignant and heart-wrenching, this is the one book sure to bring bright hope to a dark room. With a clear-eyed acknowledgment of the reality and seriousness of events beyond our control, Ghormley shows the way to meet the most difficult challenges of life head-on.

    Psmith (the “P” is silent) has been invited to Blandings Castle. But the conditions under which he received his invitation are suspect. Probably because he is a suspect. ¶Doddering old Lord Emsworth has, indeed, extended an invitation for Psmith to come stay. However, his Lordship was under the impression that the sharp and attentive Psmith was in fact, the irascible poet Ralston McTodd. ¶But the quick-witted and resourceful Psmith knows a good thing when he sees one, and immediately puts several plans in motion. True, one of which does include the purloining of Lady Constance’s jewels, but another concerns a certain lady whom Psmith saw standing in the rain earlier, and felt obliged to present with an umbrella. Never mind that the umbrella wasn’t his.
