Van Bibber and Others (Barnes & Noble Digital Library)

Newspapers and reporters, theater and society people, the wealthy, active, and idle—Manhattan man-about-town Cortlandt Van Bibber seems to be at the center of it all in this Wodehousian 1917 edition of interconnected short stories. Includes “Her First Appearance,” “Van Bibber’s Man-servant,” “Mr. Travers’s First Hunt,” and many more.
