It's easy to forget that Wodehouse wrote anything except the Jeeves series, since they get all the attention. But his earlier, now obscure works are also a lot of fun.

Original review - July 27, 2010
I enjoy PG Wodehouse's books immensely. His writings are almost always laugh out loud funny. This story is no exception.
Jimmy has led the life of a ne'er-do-well, getting into one tangle after another while living in England. Then he meets the girl of his dreams and decides to turn over a new leaf. The complication? She hates him because of his history of great 'worminess' (you'll understand when you hear the story).
Complicating things is Mr. Crocker, Jimmy's father, who leaves his wife in England and decides to masquerade as a butler in the US because he love baseball and misses it so much.
The story is funny, and the readers are excellent. All in all, it was a great read and kept me listening until the story was done. Enjoy!
