This book reveals for the first time, the personality behind the myth that P.G.Wodehouse created of himself. P G WODEHOUSE wrote the best English comic novels of the century, liked golf and money, was interned by the Germans during the Second World War and was shamefully treated by what, for lack of a better word, one may as well call the 'establishment'. All this is known. Barry Phelps would like to make one further point: that Wodehouse was not the gentle, unworldly innocent of popular belief, but a 'complex, subtle, paradoxical and phenomenally intelligent intellectual'.
