A quote on the back panel of the dust wrapper by the biographer, Herbert Warren Wind: "Wodehouse is a great writer who is not yet appreciated anything like he should be. I have attempted to fill in a little bit of the void ... When I realized that he was close at hand, living on Long Island, and accessible, I jumped at the chance to visit with him regularly. In the Profile that resulted from those visits, I have attempted to crystallize the main aspects of his fascinating life and his full-fledged genius.". Book. Book Condition: Fine. Binding: Hardcover.
