Synopsis
It was a morning when all of nature shouted 'Fore!'
'If ever comic writing captured the joy of doing the long twelth at Auchtermuchtie in one under bogey, here it is. Wodehouse keeps his eye on the ball and never presses, his clear shots to the emerald fairway leaving lesser writers to hunt furiously in the long rough, chewing their niblicks and snapping their spoons. Once you have begun them, you will go through Wodehouse's calssic golf stories like a bullet through a cream puff. They are sheer, kick-up-your-heels bliss.' Lynne Truss

Review
"It's dangerous to use the word genius to describe a writer, but I'll risk it with him" (John Humphrys)
"For as long as I'm immersed in a P.G. Wodehouse book, it's possible to keep the real world at bay and live in a far, far nicer, funnier one where happy endings are the order of the day" (Marian Keyes)
"Wodehouse always lifts your spirits, no matter how high they happen to be already" (Lynne Truss)
"The incomparable and timeless genius - perfect for readers of all ages, shapes and sizes!" (Kate Mosse)
"Not only the funniest English novelist who ever wrote but one of our finest stylists" (Susan Hill)
From the Publisher
Had his only contribution to literature been Lord Emsworth and Blandings Castle, his place in history would have been assured. Had he written of none but Mike and Psmith, he would be cherished today as the best and brightest of our comic authors. If Jeeves and Wooster had been his solitary theme, still he would be hailed as The Master. If he had given us only Ukridge, or nothing but recollections of the Mulliner family, or a pure diet of golfing stories, Wodehouse would nonetheless be considered immortal. That he gave us all those and more - so much more - is our good fortune and a testament to the most industrious, prolific and beneficent author ever to have sat down, scratched his head and banged out a sentence.' Stephen Fry
