Logistics Puzzle and Trivia Challenge

<p>That's right ladies and gentlemen. Logistics C. Wizard is hosting the First Ever Puzzle and Trivia Challenge Extravaganza!! It's simple and it's hella fun. Below are five different puzzles or trivia questions. You must solve them and pm me the answers. I will send you your score. The first person to get a 5/5 or the highest score by the end of the day will be crowned the CC Puzzle and Trivia Champion of the week with full bragging rights that they are the most intellectual CCer. In the event of a tie, we will have a "Sudden Death Puzzle". Please do not post answers on this thread or help each other. Simply PM me answers. I will eventually post the correct answers. Also, I made these puzzles myself, I did not get them from a site, so don't try to google them. The trivia may be found googling, but may take some time.<br>
Good luck and may the puzzle power be with you!</p>

Unscramble this word that is the name of a significant author in British literature. Note that I did not use capital letters, although your answer should include them:</p>
