“The immortal comic duo of ditsy Bertram Wooster and his unflappable valet Reginald Jeeves” are at it again in this hilarious follow-up to My Man Jeeves (The Washington Post). As Evelyn Waugh said of him, P. G. Wodehouse “satisfies the most sophisticated taste and the simplest.” His second collection to feature British butler Jeeves and his frivolous aristocratic employer, Bertie Wooster, contains some of his best loved stories, including “The Great Sermon Handicap, ” in which bets are placed on which parson will preach the longest Sunday sermon. Many of these linked stories feature the romantic misadventures of Bertie’s friend Bingo Little—who falls in love with everyone from a parson’s niece, a romance novelist, and a Communist to Bertie’s own fiancée. Bertie also struggles with willful Aunt Agatha and the formidable and athletic Honoria Glossop, who just may be a bit too much woman for him. As always, Jeeves steps in to set things right. This ebook has been professionally proofread to ensure accuracy and readability on all devices.
