Three Men in a Boat

More about the book

'We agree that we are overworked, and need a rest - a week on the rolling deep? - George suggests the river -' And with the cooperation of several hampers of food and an open boat, the three men (not forgetting the dog) set out on a hilarious voyage of mishaps up the Thames. When his characters are not falling in the river and getting lost in Hampton Court maze, Jerome K. Jerome finds time to express his ideas on the world around - many of which have acquired a deeper fascination since the day at the end of the last century when this excursion was so lightly undertaken.
