Leave it to Jeeves
Thornwillow’s first-ever fine press edition of "Leave it to Jeeves" was originally offered as part of the September 2023 Dispatch.
This publication is offered in two editions:
- Classic Edition: Copies bound in letterpress paper wrappers
- Patrons’ Edition: Volumes featuring deluxe letterpress paper wrappers
First published in 1916, “Leave it to Jeeves” is the first story in which Wodehouse’s celebrated butler appears in his full form. The “capable” and “extraordinary” valet to Bertie Wooster, Jeeves’ problem-solving and resourcefulness have made his name a colloquial synonym for the perfect helper. Inspired by Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson, the iconic duo Jeeves and Wooster were featured in more than thirty short stories and eleven novels by Wodehouse, anticipating and resolving comedic situations from London to New York City.
“Leave it to Jeeves” is everything that we love about the proper and knowledgeable manservant and his sometimes bumbling master. Jeeves knows everything from the correct suit for Wooster to wear, the horse to bet on (or not to), to the best way to introduce oneself to a lady, and proves himself absolutely indispensable to Wooster and his friends in this first of many stories.
