Originally issued as two separate stories in the boy’s magazine ‘The Captain’, George Orwell described Mike as the high-point of Wodehouse’s early school stories, and as ‘one of the best ‘light’ school stories in English’. The latter half of the novel, originally published as ‘The Lost Lambs’, introduces Psmith, one of Wodehouse’s most loved and enigmatic characters.
A very good copy overall, contents browned with spotting to edges, cloth somewhat rubbed with creasing at head of spine.
