This is a Jeeves and Wooster collection.

Carry on, Jeeves (Jeeves #3) by P.G. Wodehouse My rating: 5 of 5 stars I read this one in a couple of days. It's a collection of 10 stories. The first one has how Jeeves joined Wooster's service, which is very interesting. Most of the other stories take place in New York. The last one is really ...
