Back of Book says: When Jill mariner is arrested for fighting over a parrot and then loses all her money on the same day, she is abandoned by her pompous fiance and goes to stay with her rich relations on Long Island. Uncle Elemer is delighted to see her j- uintil he finds out that Jill is penniless. Heading for New York, she ends up in the chorus of a musical comedy on Broadway where she eventually finds the man of her dreams.

Once again Wodehouse lets you get to know he characters by reading about their actions and conversations. Wodehouse is wonderful! No other author quite like him.
