Plucked from country-house cricket, all-rounder Percy Jeeves outshone the Golden Age's greats over two seasons with Warwickshire. The Real Jeeves traces Percy's life from childhood via county cricket into the nightmare of WWI, which saw him perish on the Somme. Yet his name lived on thanks to PG Wodehouse, much struck by the immaculate Jeeves.
