	My Man Jeeves, P. G. Wodehouse - Section 20 of 21 - Book Club/Short Stories - ArcaMax Publishing
		As I stood in my lonely bedroom at the hotel, trying to tie my white tie myself, it struck me for the first time that there must be whole squads of chappies in the world who had to get along without a man to look after them.
		She says she had resigned herself to ending her life where she was, and then my letters began to arrive, describing the joys of New York; and they stimulated her to such an extent that she pulled herself together and made the trip.
		The frightful loss of Jeeves made any thought of pleasure more or less a mockery, but at least I found that I was able to have a dash at enjoying life again.

	(70 proof) - book reviews
		"My Man Jeeves," published in 1919, introduced the world to Bertie and his benevolent butler.
		Even more peculiar is the distribution of the tales, with Bertie and Jeeves appearing in the first three, vanishing for four, and then returning to close the book.
		Between the Bertie and Jeeves stories are four tales featuring Reggie Peppers, a slacking Englishman of leisure.

	Alibris: Valets
		From the author of the much loved "The Extra Man" comes a witty, poignant, and subversive homage to the Jeeves novels of P.G. Wodehouse--the story of a young alcoholic writer and his personal valet, who happens to be named Jeeves.
		In Jeeves and the Feudal Spirit, Bertie is in it up to his neck when a perfectly harmless visit to Aunt Dahlia at Brinkley Court finds him engaged and beleaguered on all sides,...
		Jeeves in the Morning reflects the glories and absurdities of a vanished era as Jeeves and his master, Bertie Wooster, frolic through a series of outrageous and nightmarish doings.

	My Man Jeeves, P. G. Wodehouse - Section 1 of 21 - Book Club/Short Stories - ArcaMax Publishing
		"Jeeves," I said, for I'm fond of the man, and like to do him a good turn when I can, "if you want to make a bit of money have something on Wonderchild for the 'Lincolnshire.'" He shook his head.
		Worple, he was a man of extremely uncertain temper, and his general tendency was to think that Corky was a poor chump and that whatever step he took in any direction on his own account, was just another proof of his innate idiocy.
		He was looking anxious and worried, like a man who has done the murder all right but can't think what the deuce to do with the body.

	Carry On, Jeeves by Overlook Hardcover
		My first exposure to Wodehouse, at least the first I can remember, was the great Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie (better known from "Black Adder" and "House") TV series "Jeeves and Wooster".
		My guess is that generation of young media consumers has grown up that know no humour other than the stick it someone else variety.
		This is a collection of Jeeves stories, most set in New York, that also includes the story of how Jeeves came to be hired by Bertie Wooster and Jeeves own account of one of his adventures with Bertie.

	EXTRICATING YOUNG GUSSIE by P. G. Wodehouse - The Literature Page
		When I came in she looked at me in that darn critical way that always makes me feel as if I had gelatine where my spine ought to be.
		I dare say there are fellows in the world--men of blood and iron, don't you know, and all that sort of thing--whom she couldn't intimidate; but if you're a chappie like me, fond of a quiet life, you simply curl into a ball when you see her coming, and hope for the best.
		My experience is that when Aunt Agatha wants you to do a thing you do it, or else you find yourself wondering why those fellows in the olden days made such a fuss when they had trouble with the Spanish Inquisition.

	Plum in the dock
		My first reaction to the work of this large English gentleman was, "What ho !" Thereafter P G Wodehouse became inspiration.
		Galahad Threepwood, "a man disapproved of by his numerous sisters but considered in the Servants' Hall to shed lustre on Blandings Castle." The low life in London "would have been puzzled to know whom you were referring to if you had spoken of Einstein, but they were all familiar with Gally."
		Jeeves coughed one soft, low, gentle cough like a sheep with a blade of grass stuck in its throat.

	P. G. Wodehouse
		In it, Jeeves, a servant who would go on to save his employer, Bertie Wooster, from all sorts of domestic disasters and absurd situations, had but two lines, and Bertie didn't yet have a surname.
		Wodehouse's book, My Man Jeeves, featuring eight stories (four about Bertie and Jeeves), was published in 1919, and three further collections, consisting exclusively of Bertie and Jeeves episodes, came out in 1923, 1925, and 1930.
		An extremely shy man, Wodehouse once made his wife promise to rent them an apartment on the first floor of a large building because he never knew what to say to the elevator operator.

		One of the rummy things about Jeeves is that, unless you watch like a hawk, you very seldom see him come into a room.
		Jeeves is a tallish man, with one of those dark, shrewd faces.
		It beats me sometimes why a man with his genius is satisfied to hang around pressing my clothes and whatnot.

	VQR » The Birth of Jeeves
		Jeeves was conceived and born in New York.
		So Jeeves was born in New York, but New York, to begin with, seems to have mattered to Wodehouse no more than anywhere else.
		By the time he did that, in 1934, he had been writing about Jeeves for nearly 20 years, and it was only then that his prose lost the flaccidity of some of his early fiction and finally achieved the relentless momentum of high farce.

	My Man Jeeves (Unabridged) -- P.G. Wodehouse
		My Man Jeeves, first published in 1919, introduced the world to affable, indolent Bertie Wooster and his precise, capable valet, Jeeves.
		Some of the finest examples of humorous writing found in English literature are woven around the relationship between these two men of very different classes and temperaments.
		Where Bertie is impetuous and feeble, Jeeves is coolheaded and poised.

		After my less than spectacular experience with using a supercomputer to answer my questions about Return to Castle Wolfenstein, I I did what I always do: I used the Internet.
		I turned to Jeeves because he knows a lot of stuff, plus I heard that he was both a ninja and a Nazi himself.
		Jeeves went on to tell me that Nazi Ninjas are active in the world of children's literature, producing titles like Surf Clowns, A Breakthrough Book Design for Todays' Visually Oriented Youth.

		Another factor to bear in mind is that most of these early stories were later reworked, and appear in "Carry On, Jeeves." The story "Leave it to Jeeves" appears in "Carry On" as "The Artistic Career of Corky", with the first few paragraphs re-written for that version.
		This recording consists of the two stories from the printed Carry On, Jeeves collection that were left out of the CD copy of the Carry On, Jeeves audiobook--one of which has Jeeves himself as the narrator--as well as three stories starring Bertie Wooster's predecessor, Reggie Pepper.
		Either of this or Carry On, Jeeves would appeal to the casual Wodehouse fan, and are perfect for long road trips or any other situation where a laugh is needed.

	washingtonpost.com: Jeeves and Wooster on Tape
		Martin Jarvis, who has played Jeeves on Broadway, reads Carry On, Jeeves and My Man Jeeves (Audio Partners, www.audiopartners.com), giving his performance a richly orotund, Jeevesly tone that is especially fitting in the second book, one story of which is told by that peerless pillar of the home himself.
		His is a darker rendition that suggests an incipient case of "clergyman's throat" and the possibility that he has "been bitten in the leg by a personal friend."
		The exchanges, as Cecil renders them, between Bertie, genial, besieged and "mentally negligible," and Jeeves, unimpeachable in his tact and aplomb, come as close to the ideal as is mortally possible.

		And that's why, when Bruce Corcoran came to me with his troubles, my first act was to ring the bell and put it up to the lad with the bulging forehead.

		"My Man Jeeves" (1919) was the pivotal book in which Wodehouse began to see that Bertie Wooster and Jeeves had more substance than Reggie Pepper and his butler, Voules.
		If you substituted the names, you would think they were unreleased stories of Bertie and Jeeves that Wodehouse never published.
		Wodehouse did use the name Voules again in "Thank you, Jeeves," which was the name of the police officer investigating the burglary at the cottage where Bertie was staying.
