Bertie Wooster's life is changed when the highly competent Jeeves arrives to replace Wooster's previous, thieving valet. In ten uproariously amusing tales, Jeeves quietly comes to the rescue as Wooster, his fianc , his foppish friends, and airy aristocratic acquaintances land themselves in the soup again. Among other hullabaloo and adventure, Wodehouse's much-loved cast of characters navigate unintentional or broken engagements, orchestrate visits with ghastly friends of relatives, and scramble to avoid the consequences of not a few little white lies. This Warbler Classics edition includes an extensive biographical timeline.
