About This Item
London: Herbert Jenkins, 1946. 8vo, pp. 253. Original red boards, lettered in black to front panel and spine, publisher's device in black to rear panel. Illustrated dustwrapper. Light spotting to edges of text block, but a near fine copy in a near fine dustwrapper, with light wear to spine ends and folds. Dustwrapper illustration by Frank Ford. First UK edition. The first edition of this title appeared in the US more than four years earlier. Having made catastrophically ill-advised broadcasts on German radio while held prisoner, the suspicion grew in Britain that Wodehouse had collaborated in order to escape internment, and his publishers were understandably wary.
