Publisher's Summary

Martyrs to hypochondria and general seediness, J. and his friends George and Harris decide that a jaunt up the Thames would suit them to a ‘T’. But when they set off, they can hardly predict the troubles that lie ahead with tow-ropes, unreliable weather-forecasts and tins of pineapple chunks – not to mention the devastation left in the wake of J.’s small fox-terrier Montmorency.

Three Men in a Boat was an instant success when it appeared in 1889, and, with its benign escapism, authorial discursions and wonderful evocation of the late-Victorian ‘clerking classes’, it hilariously captured the spirit of its age.

Beware abridged version

This is an abridged version, and it leaves out some of the best and funny passages. That's a shame !

Why Abridged?

Missed a lot of the episodes that have me laughing aloud in the book - Uncle Podger sequence for example... Why why why?

Three men and a dog in a boat

Their journey from Kingston to Oxford,
descriptive, little history, and funny.
Wit and witty life lessons stands out.
