Wodehouse\u003c\/strong\u003e's short stories are often set in the salons and townhouses of England, but he also wrote about golf, returning again and again to one of his favorite sports.Set against a background of the unique and often quirky world of golf in the early 1920s, Wodehouse produced a great collection of stories chronicling the loves and lives of golf fanatics. Starting around \u003cstrong\u003e1919\u003c\/strong\u003e he wrote these golf stories regularly for both American and English magazines, and published two collections: \u003cstrong\u003eThe Clicking\u003c\/strong\u003e of Cuthbert (\u003cstrong\u003e1922\u003c\/strong\u003e) and \u003cstrong\u003eThe Heart\u003c\/strong\u003e of a Goof (\u003cstrong\u003e1926\u003c\/strong\u003e). He continued to write golf stories until the mid 1960s.Most of these stories are narrated by \u003cstrong\u003eThe Oldest\u003c\/strong\u003e Member, a talkative type who frames most of the stories by trapping other members of the club into listening to his \"words of wisdom.\"\u003cstrong\u003eThe\u003c\/strong\u003e stories in this collection are ordered by the date they first appeared in magazine form, and are mostly from the English editions-the main difference from the U\u003cstrong\u003e.\u003c\/strong\u003eS. editions being the names and locations of the golf clubs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e P.
