$29.00
The Small Bachelor is a sparkling romantic comedy by P. G. Wodehouse, set in New York’s Greenwich Village. Would-be artist George Finch falls in love with Molly Waddington, but her socially ambitious stepmother has other plans. What follows is a lively tangle of mistaken identities, romantic schemes, eccentric friends and classic Wodehouse humour.
This is the 1928 Second and Cheaper Edition, published one year after the first British edition. It is bound in brown cloth with black lettering to the front board and spine.
