Lord Peter Wimsey Investigates

this book is a classic from the Gold Age and it a very nice neat publication.But it is small and to be honest because of the size I did have to return it because of my eyesight and the small print. But if it had not been for that I would certainly have kept it and added to this series of books because it looked so nice and was of such good quality.

My first Peter Wimsey book, I found it great for reading on holiday and convenient size for travel.

This is a beautifully produced hardback edition, with a rounded spine, signature binding, gold-edged leaves and a silk marker to boot. The only catch is the size, which is literally that of a pocket book, and therefore uses smaller, though readable font. A fitting tribute to a book that’s been in print for nearly a hundred years, since it was first published in 1928.Lord Peter Wimsey is a delightful detective, with a butler who sounds like Jeeves. Their banter is fun, and the mysteries always absorbing. This is a collection of 15 short stories, so the text is comparatively crisp, unlike some of the full length novels.Get a copy for yourself or as a gift - it’s great value for money.

This is an interesting selection of short stories of its time. Some aren't as short as a usual short story but then what is usual. It was an entertaining read and spans across Wimsey's career. What I really liked about this edition is that it is small, bends without cracking and is just delightful to read.
