Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. New York: Doubleday, 1940. A very good copy in tan cloth with black spine lettering and a drawing of a dog on the front panel, with light tanning to the spine, pastedowns and endpapers and with a previous owner's signature (from 1941) on the front endpaper. The book is in a colorful facsimile dustwrapper of the original. Sally, beloved fiancée of Lord Holbeton, volunteers to take on Mr. Duff, his dyspeptic trustee, for the necessary financial assistance with which to get married. Fat chance. The man-eating Duff is inured to pretty young things. But wait! Sally is not to be denied in this very popular pre-war Wodehouse tale. Scarce.
