- A lot of people have been asking about lists of Wodehouse books, Wodehouse
- trivia (what was the name of... etc.), and so forth.
-
- If I may make a recommendation, may I suggest a book called _Who's Who in
- Wodehouse_? It's by Daniel H. Garrison, published by International
- Polygonics, Ltd., 1989, $10.95, and is basically a dictionary of Wodehouse
- characters combined with a listing of every story Pelham Grenville ever wrote.
- (Excellent illustrations, too.)
-
- The listing of stories is about eighteen pages and thus a bit long for a FAQ
- (although anyone who _wants_ to type it in is welcome to try), but if you are
- going crazy trying to remember character first names, who was engaged to whom
- when, etc. I highly suggest reading either this or some other written form of
- compendium rather than going through all your Wodehouse books again in search
- of that elusive quote.
-
- Hope this helps someone out there!
-
- (One word of warning: read written listings of books with caution, since
- sometimes plots may be given away.)
