THIS VOLUME DEALS WITH WODEHOUSE CHARACTERS WHO DID NOT APPEAR IN MORE THAN ONE NOVEL. THIS BEAUTIFULLY PRODUCED AND COLLECTABLE VOLUME HAS 351 PAGES AND MANY ILLUSTRATIONS, SOME TAKEN FROM MAGAZINES IN WHICH THE MATERIAL APPEARED BEFORE IT WAS PUBLISHED IN BOOK FORM. THE COVER ILLUSTRATION IS FROM 'LAUGHING GAS', IN WHICH A HOLLYWOOD CHILD STAR AND A VISITING EARL CHANGE INTO EACH OTHER'S BODIES WHEN UNDER THE ETHER AT THE DENTISTS. THE NOVELS AND SHORT STORIES ARE CROSS-INDEXED WITH THEIR ORIGINAL UK OR USA MAGAZINE APPEARANCES. A DELIGHTFUL AND SCHOLARLY VOLUME. UNCOMMON IN UK.
