Let’s relax with more advice about successful farming. This time, we get snookered in the purchase of a cow, wage endless war on weeds, and sell some blackberry bushes. Profitable!

Let’s continue with more of the finer arts of behavior as we conclude our instruction in the etiquette of invitations, consider the well-appointed house, and are reminded that looking down on the serving class is inexcusably ill-bred. Well said, Mrs. Post!

In our annual celebration of Darwin Day, let’s continue our sleepy stroll through this fundamental text of biology. This time, why natural selection works better in big spaces, the perils of extinction, and the strength that comes from diversity. It’s science!

Let’s continue our sleepy tour of the zoological collections of the British Museum and discover the wonders first being seen by the general public circa 1850. This time, reptiles, the fauna of Great Britain, and some philosophy about our place in the history of living things. Because of course that’s included in a 19th century book.

Let’s climb the slopes of sleep with more from this journey to study the world’s highest mountain. This time, we visit Tingri, climb glaciers, and reach the highest monastery in the world. We’re less than 10 miles from Everest, friends. Dreams of adventure await!

Let’s relax with one of the most boring reads I’ve ever encountered, a minutely detailed guide to the internal workings of legislative assemblies. Why, one might wonder how anything ever gets done at all. Motion to sleep, seconded!

Let’s relax with another sleepy stroll across the sands of time to ancient Egypt. This time, we finish our overview of tombs and learn about Egyptian painting conventions, including cat-based satire. It never gets old! Maspero has a marvelous way of bringing these images to life, and I think you'll love his descriptions.
