This collection of short stories, set in St. Austin’s school, and published as an anthology in 1903, is a mixed bag. I can think of at least three stories wherein Wodehouse just goes off on a tangent, with meandering thoughts about Cricket, Notes and Work. Then again, there are some real fun stories, particularly those featuring Charteris, MacArthur (Babe), Harrison & Pillingshot, giving a glimpse of the author Wodehouse was to become later in his career.

Thanks to Project Gutenberg, with Tales of St. Austin’s, I have finished reading the entire published short story collection (not counting curated versions) of Wodehouse, and brings me one step closer in my quest to read every published short story / novel of Wodehouse.
