Samenvatting:

First published in 1889, ‘Three Men in a Boat’ is a comic travelogue by Jerome K. Jerome, an English writer, and humorist. Initially intended as a serious travel guide, then facilitated into a delightful account of a farcical boating excursion on the Thames River, it is Jerome K. Jerome's controversially ‘vulgar’ take on English history and recreation. A mix of social satire and Victorian wit, this book of ramblings broaches a variety of unlikely subjects, including leisure, nostalgia, and friendship. Despite telling a story where everything goes wrong, this funny travelogue offers a vivid portrait of Victorian England the reader will not soon forget.
