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

"Not George Washington" (1907), written in collaboration with Herbert Westbrook, is a humorous, fictionalised account of Wodehouse's early years as a journalist. The story is told in first person, but by four different characters.

I created this version from the PG text, formatted with curly quotes, a TOC, etc., using mobiperl from the hand-written HTML file. I hope the formatting comes out fine in all devices, I only really tested it on my Cybook.

Any kind of feedback is welcome.

EDIT (v2):

Fixed a problem with non breaking spaces
