Description

Although he wrote hundreds of songs and was a key figure in the birth of the American stage musical, P. G. Wodehouse's (1881-1975) long and influential career as a lyricist has been almost completely forgotten and unheralded-until now. This book sets the lyrics from his nearly forty theatrical productions within the context of each individual show, providing incisive and informative commentary for each. Lavishly illustrated with photos and memorabilia, Barry Day establishes why, throughout the 1920s and 1930s, Wodehouse was considered a top-tier theatrical figure on both sides of the Atlantic.

Author Biography:

Barry Day is author or editor of numerous books, including Sherlock Holmes: In His Own Words and in the Words of Those Who Knew Him, Noel Coward: The Complete Lyrics, and This Wooden 'O': Shakespeare's Globe Reborn.
