Sir Pelham Grenville Wodehouse (1881-1975) was a popular English comic writer. His books are usually set around pre-war upper-class English society.

This is a collection of 13 humoristic short stories, published in book form in 1917. A typical sample of the author's style and themes... The stories included are:

"Bill the Bloodhound"
"Extricating Young Gussie"
"Wilton’s Holiday"
"The Mixer I. He Meets a Shy Gentleman"
"The Mixer II. He Moves in Society"
"Crowned Heads"
"At Geisenheimer's"
"The Making of Mac's"
"One Touch of Nature"
"Black for Luck"
"The Romance of an Ugly Policeman"
"A Sea of Troubles"
"The Man with Two Left Feet"

I created this version from the PG text, proofread and corrected (the original was pretty good). I added curly quotes, a TOC, some formatting, etc., and created the book with mobiperl.

Any kind of feedback is welcome.

EDIT (v2): Corrected an item in the TOC
