Extricating Young Gussie - Overview

Overview

"Extricating Young Gussie" features the first appearance of some of Wodehouse's most popular and enduring characters - valet extraordinaire Jeeves (whose role in this debut story is very small) and his master Bertie Wooster (whose surname is not actually mentioned). Bertie's imperious Aunt Agatha also appears.

The first meeting of Jeeves and Bertie would be chronicled one year later, in the November 1916 short story "Jeeves Takes Charge".
