Unsurprisingly, this Wodehouse book contains short stories in which Wooster and his friends get helped out with their problems by the Gentleman's man-servant, Jeeves. The style is, of course, the same as the other Wodehouse-books I've read, and that is not a bad thing. Unfortunately I didn't find this particular collection quite as funny as the two preceding Jeeves-books, and at times everything became a little too predictable. Still a decent read, but far from my favourite Wodehouse.
