Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. Fun satire of England's pre-WW1 military readiness which also includes other British habits (such as the desertion of London during the summer). Although peppered with typical Wodehouse silliness, this is a more serious book than most of his. Kristen Hughes does a good (but not great) narration in this Librivox recording. no reviews | add a review

HTML: Only a comic genius of the magnitude of P.G. Wodehouse could take a weighty subject like war and turn it into a rib-tickling joyride. The Swoop! is an account of a fictionalized invasion of England by several enemy armiesâ??and of the indomitable Boy Scout leader who uses psychological warfare to turn the leaders of the invading forces against one another.
