  The Caral-Supe civilization, considered the first known civilization in the Americas, emerged around 5,000 years ago in the arid coastal region of present-day Peru. Often referred to as the "mother civilization" of the Andes, Caral-Supe predates other significant Andean cultures such as the Inca by millennia. Its capital city, Caral, located in the Supe Valley, is regarded as one of the oldest urban centers in the world. The discovery of this civilization has drastically reshaped our understanding of early American societies, highlighting the complexity and sophistication of pre-Columbian cultures in the Americas. 
  The story of Caral-Supe began with its discovery in the early 1990s, when archaeologist Ruth Shady and her team identified the ancient city of Caral, which had been largely overlooked until then. The site’s impressive architectural features and its well-planned urban layout revealed that the civilization had a deep understanding of engineering, agriculture, and social organization. Caral-Supe flourished for more than a thousand years, from roughly 3000 BCE to 1800 BCE, and was a major center of culture, trade, and religion in the region. 
  Geographically, the Caral-Supe civilization developed in the Supe Valley, a narrow strip of land located between the Pacific Ocean and the Andes Mountains. This region, although dry and arid, was strategically positioned to foster trade and communication with other cultures. The valley provided fertile land for agriculture, supported by sophisticated irrigation systems, which allowed the Caral-Supe civilization to thrive in such an inhospitable environment. This innovative agricultural system was a key factor in their ability to sustain large urban populations and build monumental structures.

  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.

  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 three of Wodehouse's most beloved "Jeeves and Wooster" tales - including eight short stories from the anthology "My Man, Jeeves," as well as the complete novels "The Inimitable Jeeves" and "Right Ho, Jeeves" - each a master class in comedic writing. ("My Man Jeeves" also features four stories surrounding Reggie Pepper, an early Bertie Wooster prototype.).  Along with Jeeves and Bertie, we are introduced to an entire cast of beloved Wodehouse characters: Madeline Bassett, Bingo Little, James "Corky" Corcoran, Honoria Glossop, Rockmetteller Todd and the terrifying and bombastic Aunt Agatha.  These three books are presented here in their original and unabridged form.
