About the book

Travels with Robert Louis Stevenson brings together travel writing associated with one of the great literary travellers of the nineteenth century. Stevenson's journeys through Europe and America inspired vivid accounts of landscapes, people and the practical difficulties of travel. His writing combines humour, curiosity and a strong sense of adventure. Uncle Fred in the Springtime P. Wodehouse's Uncle Fred in the Springtime follows the irrepressible Lord Ickenham, known as Uncle Fred, as he becomes involved in a complicated scheme at Blandings Castle. Using disguises, improvisation and complete confidence, Uncle Fred attempts to solve romantic and financial problems while creating chaos around him. The novel is a classic example of Wodehouse's elaborate comic plotting.
