Summary: "The Pothunters" by P. G. Wodehouse is a humorous novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around a group of students from a British public school, focusing particularly on their adventures and mishaps during a boxing competition and the ensuing chaos related to stolen sports prizes. The main protagonist, Tony Graham, along with his cousin Allen Thomson, experiences both the thrills of competition and the complications of school life. The opening of the novel introduces readers to the boxing competition held at Aldershot, where Tony is preparing to face off against several opponents, including his skilled cousin Allen, who is well-acquainted with the world of boxing.
