In creating that incomparable pair -- the lovable scamp Bertie Wooster and his unflappable valet, Jeeves -- P. G. Wodehouse "made a world for us to live in and delight in" (Evelyn Waugh). This volume contains eleven stories, including "Jeeves and the Impending Doom, " a hilarious chronicle of a ghastly weekend at Aunt Agatha's country home; "Jeeves and the Song of Songs, " which features Bertie's reluctant public debut as a singer; and "The Inferiority Complex of Old Sippy, " in which Jeeves manages, with the usual aplomb, to help one of Bertie's bumbling pals win the hand of the woman he loves.
