Peter Wimsey and World-Building

In this short episode, we learn about Lord Peter's pedigree and also hear the voice of his friends through a discussion of two books: The Wimsey Family and The Wimsey Papers. If you're just getting to know Lord Peter, this is a good place to learn just how real he is, fictionally speaking. It's also a good place to learn about some creative publishing during World War II.
