Wodehouse:  One of the first Wodehouse books I ever read had a blurb about
		the author on the back which said "P.G. Wodehouse is 87 years
		old and has written about a million books.  Or else, he is
		about a million years old and has written 87 books.  Either
		way, the figures are amazing."

	Read "Leave it to Psmith".  I think it is one of his best.  In
	Psmith, you can see the beginnings of a number of future Wodehouse
	characters, including Jeeves.

I also recently read (but can't remember the author or exact title), a
"biography" of Jeeves.  It was quite good, but is best read AFTER you have
devoured a large amount of Wodehouse, or you will miss a lot of the
references.
