What can I say - here's another wonderful book from that prince of authors - P.G. Wodehouse

When you read Wodehouse's "Wooster and Jeeves" stories it's very easy to understand how they were turned into a very funny and successful British TV series. Quite often I get so involved in the short stories I forget to chuckle. It's only after I've finished the story that I'll slap the book down and rejoice in the entertainment I've just had.

This book contains eleven short stories. These are parodies of the British class structure in that Wodehouse often makes upperclass Bertie Wooster look like a fool as his 'gentleman's gentleman Jeeves gets him out of trouble and saves the day. And so many of Wooster's relations make you wonder how Britain created an Empire.
