William Tell Told Again, by P.G. Wodehouse

About the Author Sir Pelham Grenville Wodehouse (P. G. Wodehouse) was an English humorist and writer best known for his Jeeves and Blandings Castle novels. Educated at boarding schools, Wodehouse turned to writing at a young age, demonstrating great skill at humorous sketches and musical lyrics. He continued to write part-time while pursuing, at the behest of his father, a career in banking, and successfully contributed numerous pieces to Punch, Vanity Fair, and The Daily Express, among other publications. In addition to his literary work, Wodehouse was incorporated into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in recognition of his collaboration with Cole Porter on Anything Goes, his lyrics to the song Bill from Show Boat, and his work on the musicals Rosalie and The Three Musketeers.

While interned along with other British citizens in Germany during the Second World War, Wodehouse made a series of radio broadcasts for which he was accused of being a collaborator; and, although later cleared of the charges, he never returned to England. His work has influenced many other writers including Evelyn Waugh, Rudyard Kipling, J. K. Rowling, and John Le Carr?. P. G. Wodehouse died in 1975 at the age of 93.

14 of 15 people found the following review helpful. An early masterpiece By Gopal One of Wodehouse's earliest efforts, this is a must-own for any Wodehouse fan. Still written in the days when the master was doing school tales, one can see precusors of that incredible ability that Wodehouse had, to take the English language to places few others could have imagined it could go to. A simple tale of good triumphing over evil - it is one of those rare Wodehouses (probably the only one) in which a character dies. In his later & much more celebrated efforts, one got the feeling that all his characters were ageless & immortal.

A Simple Tale Told Simply, By A Master By Chris Ward This early example of Wodehouse's whimsy is perfect for reading aloud to a child before bedtime, or for enjoying ones' self no matter the age. The tale of Tell is not well known by many these days-- learn a little history (well, legend) and enjoy Wodehouse's always- sparkling prose and verse in this extended fable.One hundred years later, he's still hard to beat for humor.

3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. missing illustrations By Traveler This is a short story and takes less than an hour to read. It goes without saying that if you are an avid Wodehouse fan, you'll love it. If not, you might find this rather offputting. The people are suppressed by a tyrannical governor, but naturally, William Tell is there to shoot an apple off his son's head and save the day. My friend tells me this is a children's story, but, to me, it was just as much for adults as children. Back in the earlier days of tv there was a show called Fractured Fairy Tales with - was it Edward Everett Horton? This is a fractured fairy tale and a lot of fun. What is not fun is that it is an ILLUSTRATED fairy tale, and Kindle does not accept illustrations. Throughout, there is an indication of Plate Number Such & Such, and you must either work your way to the end of the book to read a description of the plate (which is not easy on a Kindle) or wait until the story is finished and read all the descriptions at once. Wodehouse is one of my favorite authors, and frankly, I would have been very happy with just the story without the illustrations - if I had not known about the illustrations at all. However, since I was forewarned about the "deficiency" in the story, I felt I was disadvantaged. Why put something into Kindle at all if it doesn't work? If it does work, why try to patch up the story with the descriptions after it's all over? I need large-print books, which makes Kindle good for me. However, there are some challenges to reading on a Kindle, and the above is an example. Someday, technological advances will bring more features to Kindle: illustrations, flipping pages, an easier-to-use built-in dictionary. Until then, I wish the people at Kindle would use a little more common sense in what (and how) they make available to the Kindle user.
