George A. Birmingham was the pen name of Irish clergyman James Owen Hannay, who wrote some of the most warmly comic novels of the early twentieth century. Priscilla’s Spies is a characteristically light-footed romp, filled with the sort of well-meaning confusion and cheerful misunderstanding that Birmingham made his trademark.
Set against a backdrop of Irish life rendered with affection and a gently satirical eye, this is ideal reading for anyone who enjoys comic fiction in the vein of E. F. Benson or early Wodehouse. Download this free EPUB and enjoy Birmingham’s gentle, irresistible wit.
