Publisher's Synopsis

"But who wants to be foretold the weather? It is bad enough when it comes, without our having the misery of knowing about it beforehand."

J. and his friends George and Harris decide that taking a boating holiday on the Thames from Kingston upon Thames to Oxford and back to Kingston is a great idea - what could go wrong?

Originally intended to be a serious travel guide, the humorous elements soon took over and Three Men in a Boat (To Say Nothing of the Dog) has been considered a classic masterpiece of British humor since its first publication in 1889.
