My Man Jeeves, first published in 1919, introduced the world to affable, indolent Bertie Wooster and his precise, capable valet, Jeeves. Some of the finest examples of humorous writing found in English literature are woven around the relationship between these two men of very different classes and temperaments. Where Bertie is impetuous and feeble, Jeeves is coolheaded and poised. This collection, the first book of Jeeves and Wooster stories, contains eight stories, including "Absent Treatment", "Helping Freddie", "Rallying Round Old George", "Doing Clarence a Bit of Good", "Fixing It for Freddie", and "Bertie Changes His Mind".

3.5 My Man Jeeves, by P.G. Wodehouse
When I was a freshman in college, a professor assigned Right Ho, Jeeves as our last book of the semester for a class on 20th Century Fiction. I'd never heard of the series, though clearly it's had a big influence on depictions of butlers/valets and hapless masters (among other things) in popular cul...

5.0 My Man Jeeves - P.G. Wodehouse
A month is an unusually long time for me to take on a book, but this was just the perfect palate cleanser between other books. Finish something-or-other, not sure what I want to read next, or not ready to start something just before bed, or I don't have another book in my work bag (well, except for ...

3.0 My Man Jeeves
I downloaded a number of P.G. Wodehouse items free for kindle, and this, the first I've read, is also a very early item chronologically from the looks of it. (The absence of real upfront bibliographical information in some of these scans continues to bother me). Anyway, I acquired this for chuckles ...
