Penguin Main Series 986. 1st Edition, published 1954.
Seize this wonderful chance to embark on a Wodehousian voyage on the luxurious liner S.S. Atlantic - in the company of Monty Bodkin, whose passion for Gertrude Butterwick knows no bounds (except those set by the wild-at-heart Hollywood starlet Lotus Blossom and her pet alligator). Also aboard are a movie mogul, the centre-forward for the All-England ladies hockey team and the two Tennyson brothers (one of whom has been mistaken for the late poet laureate and given a fat movie contract...). Also a chatty steward, and a mouse doll in which all manner of things can be hidden. This hilarious comic novel is Wodehouse at full sail - a voyage of pure delight.
Condition grading: Good Minus. Some creasing and wear to spine. Some bumping and creases to righ hand coners of front cover. Some bumping to bottom left corner of rear cover. Some staining to rear cover. Binding tight. The photographs form part of the description.
