What was intended to be a standard travel guide turned into one of the world's most amusing novels. Jerome K. Jerome's Three Men in a Boat unfolds over two weeks along the River Thames, from Kingston upon Thames in London to Oxford and back. The tales of the significant historical sites unfold in riotous comedy as J. and his friends, George and Carl, along with J.'s (fictional) dog, Montmorency, embark on a boating holiday.
Three Men in a Boat is one of the most classic comedic novels in world literatur and still feels fresh and modern despite being published more than a hundred years ago.
