I've read a few of the novels and loved the Jeeves & Wooster tv show, so it was really fun to see how Bertie and Jeeves first met and their adventures in New York. As I'm sure other reviews mentioned, only the first half of this collection is about Bertie Wooster. Fans of the show should know that most of the stories (out of the Bertie lot) have been adapted to episodes so while they're presented differently enough to still be entertaining, the surprise of seeing Jeeves untangle an un-untangable mess is a bit loss when you go in knowing the gist of it. Still a fun, quick read!
