***************

Starting September 2016, I am trying to read through all of Wodehouse’s books in published order!  Below are his books in published order… as best I can figure.  A lot of his books were published first in the US or first in the UK, and then in the other country in a different year.  Some were published as serials and then as a full book several years later.  Creating a truly accurate published-order list seems nearly impossible…
