When two of Wodehouse's favourite early characters, Psmith and Mike, find themselves in New York City, it isn't long before those quintessential Englishmen are involved in the mysteries of American gang warfare. Their adventure begins when they meet the acting editor of Cosy Moments, a sentimental magazine which Psmith transforms into a crusading journal attacking slum landlords. When one of their targets sets the underworld onto them, the fun really takes off. Psmith, Journalist is an extraordinary combination of comedy, adventure story and – unusually in Wodehouse – social comment. There is even a boxing match graphically described. As such, it is unique among his novels in content, but characteristic in wit and entertainment value.
