    by Joseph Conrad, Harriet Gainsborough, Connor Wells ...
    Lord Jim traces the fate of a young British officer whose moment of cowardice aboard the pilgrim-ship Patna brands him for life. Through Charles Marlow's layered narration, Conrad deploys impressionistic, recursive storytelling that moves between inquiry and reminiscence, testimony and rumor.

    by Lewis Henry Morgan, Brielle Kestridge, Connor Wells ...
    Ancient Society (1877) proposes a unilineal sequence from Savagery to Barbarism to Civilization, keyed to pivotal inventions—fire, pottery, agriculture, metallurgy, writing—and to linked changes in kinship, property, and government.

    by Gustave Flaubert, Connor Wells, Connor Wells ...
    Bouvard & Pécuchet follows two Parisian copy clerks who, after a windfall, retire to Normandy to master all knowledge. Each new enthusiasm—agronomy, chemistry, aesthetics, pedagogy, politics—appears in pitch-perfect pastiche of manuals and treatises.

    by Eugen Sandow, Callum Farrowly, Connor Wells ...
    Strength and How to Obtain It is a late-Victorian manual that systematizes physical culture into a progressive regimen of light-dumbbell work, muscle control, calisthenics, and hygienic rules. Sandow couples prescriptive charts, measurements, and illustrative plates with a briskly didactic, quasi-scientific tone, invoking classical proportion as the benchmark. He details diet, breathing, bathing, ... Read more

    by Alfred Thayer Mahan, Basil Cunningham, Connor Wells ...
    Alfred Thayer Mahan's The Influence of Sea Power upon History argues, through case studies from the Anglo‑Dutch wars to the American Revolution, that national greatness rests on command of the sea. Written amid fin‑de‑siècle debates on empire and industry, it blends narrative history and strategic theory in magisterial, didactic prose, distilling six conditions of sea power and showing how ...

    Enriched edition. Rational Skepticism, Natural Religion, and Moral Philosophy in the Enlightenment

    by Ethan Allen, Connor Wells, Connor Wells ...
    Reason, the Only Oracle of Man advances a robust program of natural religion in which unaided reason, observation, and moral sense—not miracle or ecclesiastical decree—ground humanity's knowledge of God and duty. Allen dismantles claims to special revelation, exposes contradictions in Scripture, rejects predestination and priestcraft, and posits a rational, benevolent moral order discernible in ... Read more

    by Of Norwich Julian, Connor Wells, Connor Wells ...
    Revelations of Divine Love gathers sixteen visions from 1373 into prose that joins affective devotion to bold, carefully reasoned theology. In lucid, homely Middle English, Julian meditates on Christ's passion, the motherhood of God, sin as "behovely," and creation as a hazelnut held in divine love.
