Published in 1889, Three Men in a Boat is a humorous account by Jerome K. Jerome of a boating holiday on the Thames between Kingston and Oxford. The book was initially intended to be a serious travel guide, with accounts of local history along the route. One of the most praised things about Three Men in a Boat is how undated it appears to modern readers, the jokes seem fresh and witty even today.

Autorenporträt
Welsh humorist Jerome Klapka Jerome (1859-1927) attempted a variety of professions, from railway worker to actor to journalist before finding success with a comic memoir and collection of essays, Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow. His Three Men in a Boat sold more than a million copies in its first two decades, and it remains a classic of humor and travel writing.
