Summary
:
This is a sort of novel, as there is a definite progression in time, with events carrying over from one chapter to the next. However, many of the chapters could stand alone as short stories with a little encouragement, and in fact did so previously to being sequed into the book. Other stories are broken up into two chapters; these may be read in their original form in The World of Jeeves. The chapters are as follows:
- Jeeves Exerts the Old Cerebellum
- No Wedding Bells for Bingo
- Aunt Agatha Speaks Her Mind
- Pearls Mean Tears
- The Pride of the Woosters is Wounded
- The Hero's Reward
- Introducing Claude and Eustace
- Sir Roderick Comes to Lunch
- A Letter of Introduction
- Startling Dressiness of a Lift Attendant
- Comrade Bingo
- Bingo Has a Bad Goodwood
- The Great Sermon Handicap
- The Purity of the Turf
- The Metropolitan Touch
- The Delayed Exit of Claude and Eustace
- Bingo and the Little Woman
- All's Well
