Reviews for The White Feather

[ajbraithwaite_1 · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

Fairly standard Wodehouse school story, focusing on the redemption of Sheen through taking up boxing. Quick to read, nothing outstanding about it.

[ianw_93 · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Outstanding example of a Wodehouse public school ripping yarn of his early era (aged 26 in 1907). Full of chaps, rotters, fags and bounders of various types, rugger, boxing and fives. Has a number of flaws which he later discusses in his "Performing Flea" autobioigraphy, notably the inclusion of too many characters, and having "big" scenes where the major characters aren't actually present. Nonetheless a thoroughly enjoyable read.
