(APG, Wodehouse: 093b) First American edition. Cocktail Time is a comic novel by P. G. Wodehouse, first published in the United Kingdom on June 20, 1958 by Herbert Jenkins, London and in the United States on July 24, 1958 by Simon & Schuster, Inc., New York. The story begins when Uncle Fred knocks off Sir Raymond Bastable s top hat with a Brazil nut fired through the window of the Drones Club from a catapult. Sir Raymond naturally assumes that the culprit was a young Drone, but is unsure how to respond. A letter to the Times would open him to ridicule, especially as he is about to stand for Parliament. Uncle Fred suggests writing a novel exposing the iniquities of the younger generation. The eventual novel, Cocktail Time , which Bastable publishes under a pseudonym, becomes a succès de scandale after being condemned by a bishop. Afraid of being unmasked as the author, Bastable allows his ne er-do-well nephew Cosmo Wisdom to take the credit, and the royalties, of the book. But, with his friend Gordon Oily Carlisle, and Oily s wife Gertie, Cosmo plots to blackmail Sir Raymond, and to this end writes a letter revealing the true author of Cocktail Time . Much of the rest of the book is concerned with various characters attempts to get hold of the letter. Condition: Jacket spine sunned, points and spine ends with light chips else a very good to fine copy in like jacket.

Description: 222+[2 ad] pages. Small octavo (7 1/2" x 5 3/4") bound in original publisher's blue boards with title stamped in gilt onto spine in original pictorial jacket. (APG, Wodehouse: 093a) First British edition with first state jacket. It was never the habit of Frederick, fifth Earl of Ickenham to grumble when events crowded in on him, but he did sometimes feel that the life-work he had set himself of spreading sweetness and light - or, as some preferred to put it, meddling in other people's business - was almost more than any man could be expected to undertake single-handed. So many problems had presented themselves of late, coming up one after the other. First there was the faltering courtship of his godson, Johnny, and the delectable Belinda Farringdon. Then there was Albert Peasmarch's tangled love-life in which the promotion of a union between this admirable butler and the sister of his employer was calling for all that Frederick had of resolution and ingenuity. And thirdly there was the matter of the reformation of Beefy Bastable, whose attitude towards his sister Phoebe, so like that of a snapping turtle suffering from ulcers, Frederick felt it his duty to correct. It is hardly to be wondered at that Frederick confessed to being preoccupied. But happily such moments with him were of fleeting duration. In the present instance the mood came, paused and passed, leaving Frederick with the ball at his feet, eager to lend his statesman-like mind to all mankind in distress. The account of his adventures is a riot of fun from beginning to end. Condition: Corners bumped. Jacket with closed tear and crease at front heal edge, touch of rubbing to points else near fine in a very good to fine jacket.
