Carry on Jeeves and Right Ho...

P. G. Wodehouse

P.G. Wodehouse, the master of British humor, produced dozens of books and hundreds of short stories in his long and prolific career. But none of his creations has quite captured the world's imagination as much as his bumbling, empty-headed, man-about-town Bertie Wooster and Bertie's faithful, knight-in-shining tuxedo Jeeves.  Collected here are two of Wodehouse's most beloved "Jeeves and Wooster" creations - ten short stories from the anthology "Carry On, Jeeves" and the complete novel "Right Ho, Jeeves" - each a master class in comedic writing. Along with Jeeves and Bertie, we are introduced to an entire cast of beloved Wodehouse characters: Bingo Little, James "Corky" Corcoran, Honoria Glossop, Rockmetteller Todd and the terrifying and bombastic Aunt Agatha.  These two books are presented here in their original and unabridged form.

Grabbing A Slice Of "Minnesota...

Lucas LaMont

Minnesota has a code, don't cha know? 
Knowing this code is essential for living in the state famous for an accent only the Coen Brothers could replicate. But if you only focused on the accents in Fargo, you might have missed the nuance. 
After all, there has to be some reason Minnesotans live in a state where winter lasts six months out of the year. What is it? We call it "Minnesota Nice." It permeates all aspects of life, including the way we talk, what we eat, how we entertain guests, the way we practice our faith, and how we enjoy the great outdoors. 
Do you want to know more—or better yet, know someone in your life who should? Grab a copy today so you can have something to set your coffee mug on. Plus, it's thick enough you'll really annihilate that fly that won't stop buzzing around.
