P. G. Wodehouse

Image P. G. WodehousePelham Grenville Wodehouse was born at Guildford, Surrey, 15 October, 1881. Many excellent biographies exist and so none is attempted here but a few significant dates and events from his life may be useful.

After attending Dulwich College from 1894-1900 he worked at the Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank in London, writing articles and short stories in his spare time and having his first novel, a school story The Pothunters, published in 1902. He joined The Globe as editor of the column 'By the Way'  in 1904 and his first adult novel, Love among the Chickens was published in 1906.

By this time he had already visited USA for the first time and was writing song lyrics as well as plays and novels. By 1909 he was making enough money from his writing to be able to resign from The Globe.

For the next twenty years he spent time on both sides of the Atlantic. His writing output was prolific, producing full length novels, regularly contributing short stories to periodicals as well as writing plays, song lyrics and screenplays.

In 1932 he bought a house near Le Touquet in France and it was from there, after the fall of France, that he was interned by the Germans in 1940. After spending time in several prisons he was released in 1941, as was German policy for internees at the age of 60, first to Berlin and then Paris.

Having been cut off from his reading public for so long and not being allowed out of the country he took up the offer by a US Correspondent to broadcast from Germany to the American and British people, an action which was probably naive and certainly misinterpreted in UK at the time as German propaganda.

After the liberation of France he was arrested by the French police and detained in hospital without charge. There were moves within UK for him to be charged with treason but through lack of evidence he was eventually released and he moved to New York in 1947, becoming a US Citizen in 1955.

In January 1975 he belatedly received a Knighthood from the British Queen and in February the same year died in hospital at Southampton.

Our checklist

We are happy to share this with you but would suggest that serious students/collectors obtain their own copies of reference sources such as McIlvaine, Connolly, Jasen, Usborne etc. We have found the excellent McIlvaine the most comprehensive but that very nature means that because of its size it is not the easiest to use as a quick reference.

When cataloguing undated UK Wodehouse titles we found it useful to have a ready reference list of the UK titles in date of publication order. To this end we compiled our own and added notes for our own reference,  (e.g. genre, whether US or UK was 1st issue, anything that we have previously found that is not covered in McIlvaine, etc) - which is reproduced here.

Included in each entry is the number used by McIlvaine (which should be referred to for definitive details) as well as some differences from McIlvaine which we have recorded by examining the books concerned.


The following is a list of the UK works of P. G. Wodehouse in date order, not a list of the books we are offering for sale. For the the titles we currently have in stock see here


Notes:

i.  In two sections, Original Works followed by Collected/omnibus editions
ii. Where there is no UK issue there is no listing
iii. There are sometimes minor differences in the content between UK and US issues of the same book and in a few cases the versions are very different. Any differences receive only a passing mention if at all, in this list
