Hilarious situations abound with Garnet's troublesome courting of a girl living nearby and the struggles on the farm, which are worsened by Ukridge's bizarre business ideas and methods. Soon he is up to his neck in sick chickens, bad debts, a hostile future father-in-law, a sinister plot, and dirty golf. This was Wodehouse's first novel published in the United States, and the only one to feature the recurring character Stanley Featherstonehaugh Ukridge. “There is something funny about chickens. (A glance through the New Yorker cartoon archives reveals the bird to be a rich comedic inspiration, with popular themes concerning road crossing, notions of free-rangedom, and the eternal question of the provenance of the chicken and the egg.) And certainly there is something very funny about men chasing them around.” -The New Yorker CONTENTS I.--A LETTER WITH A POSTSCRIPT II. --UKRIDGE'S SCHEME III. --WATERLOO, SOME FELLOW-TRAVELERS, AND A GIRL WITH BROWN HAIR IV. --THE ARRIVAL V. --BUCKLING TO VI. --MR.
