Infos

English butlers are a league of their own. More prude than their masters and more steeped in conventions of the English customs, they can get a shock of their lives, if only they could come to America. Something similar happens to our hero, Ruggles, who is staked by his owner in a game of cards and handed over to an American couple. What happens next is a riot of colors and experiences. So, come along on this comedy of situations with our hero who is trying to figure out the new country and its new customs and that too with a mistaken identity! The story has been adapted into two successful Hollywood movies and will give you hours of reading pleasure. Read on!
