Description
A comic masterpiece that has remained in print since its first publication in 1889, Three Men in a Boat is a humorous tale of three friends' disastrous boat trip along the Thames. With an introduction and notes by Jeremy Lewis, this edition offers insight into Jerome K. Jerome's life and times.
Jerome K. Jerome's journey to writing success began with his first book, On Stage and Off, in 1885, followed by The Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow in 1886. However, it was Three Men in a Boat that brought him lasting fame, cementing his place as one of the founders of the humorous magazine, The Idler.
This charming tale of friendship and misadventure is a wonderful evocation of late-Victorian England, with its benign escapism and authorial discursions. With its enduring popularity, Three Men in a Boat continues to entertain readers with its lighthearted humour and relatable characters.
