The Bishop's Jaegers Thorne Smith

If you're in the mood for a wildly hilarious comic romp, give Thorne Smith's "The Bishop's Jaegars" a read. Mad, hilarious, degenerate, or simply fun fantasy? Only the reader can decide. Adrift and listless, a wealthy coffee heir Peter Van Dyke is searching for meaning in life. His young secretary Jo decides to shake things up and help him get back on track. Although he is engaged to another, she has far from given up. Laughter ensues as they go from one mishap to another along with fiancée Yolanda Wilmont, a pickpocket, a bishop who is desperately attached to his jaegers, and Aspirin Liz. Before long, they find themselves at the center of a bizarre coterie of characters who invade a nudist colony.
