Produktbeschreibung
Ruggles of Red Gap is a popular work of fiction written by Harry Leon Wilson. Wilson was a novelist and dramatist of considerable popularity in the early twentieth century - this title provides readers with the opportunity to read the work that Wilson is most well known for. Ruggles of Red Gap is the story of an English butler, Marmaduke Ruggles, that is lost by his master in a poker game, and subsequently must relocate to the United States to look after a family unfamiliar to him. Of course, his new masters are the young and crude American couple Effie and Egbert Floud, and Ruggles must navigate life in a new country and the powerful personalities of his new employers. This is a classic fish out of water tale, and one that unfolds in comedic fashion. The character of Ruggles develops throughout the story, and emerges a better man for all of his tribulations. Ruggles of Red Gap is an eminently readable story written by an author who specialized in creating works to be enjoyed by a large swath of the population. Wilson is an intelligent and witty writer who builds subtle jokes into almost every situation. Ruggles is designed as the perfect straight man, with secondary characters responsible for most overtly forwarding the book´s humour. Harry Leon Wilson´s tale of Marmaduke Ruggles in America is a pleasant read that will appeal to any fans of comedy from this era. Its breezy pace makes it a quick read, and one deserving of the accolades it has received. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
