Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: No Dust Jacket. Illustrated by Will Grefe. (illustrator). Wodehouse's sharp wit and skillful character development shine throughout this lighthearted narrative. The plot is fast-paced, built on mistaken identities, romantic entanglements, and the absurdities of high society. Wodehouse excels in blending social satire with farcical humor, making the novel both an engaging romp and a critique of early 20th-century aristocratic life. Dark brown cloth with large titles stamped in gilt with two oval color gilt outlined portraits. 7.5 inches tall; [8] 300 pages; tissue-guarded frontispiece and three additional plates by Will Grefe. First American Edition, published January 1912, preceding the British First. The bindings are good with the front hinge starting. Text is clean; light, even age-toning. Moderate shelf handling wear. Hint of a damp-stain on the lower corner of first few pages. Spine titles are sun-faded. The book features many of the quintessential Wodehouse tropes: bumbling but endearing characters, exaggerated situations, and clever dialogue. His characters, from the naive prince to the spirited Betty, are drawn with wit and warmth, showcasing Wodehouse's mastery of comic characterization. A delightful example of his early comedic style and his enduring ability to create situations of ridiculousness that still feel fresh today. It is a must-read for fans of classic British humor and light-hearted romantic comedies. Adapted in 1919 into a now lost silent comedy.
