Prince and Betty

by P. G. Wodehouse

In P.G. Wodehouse's "The Prince and Betty," a wealthy American, Benjamin Scobell, plans to build a casino on the tranquil island of Mervo. His grand scheme, however, inadvertently draws in the island's unwitting heir to the throne, a young man named John Maude. Meanwhile, Scobell's stepdaughter, Betty, harbors a past connection with John. As Scobell's elaborate plans unfold, they create a rift between John and Betty, forcing them to navigate the complexities of their relationship amidst a whirlwind of social satire and amusing mishaps.
