"Three Men in a Boat" is a hilarious volume, filled with boating adventures and witty ramblings.
It all begins when a trio of grown men "decide" they are quite ill and that a sea trip is just the thing to cure them. If you don't mind casting away with a coterie of half-lunatics, then you're in for a treat. The self-diagnosis of various ailments gets a person chuckling. The ridiculous arguments get a person guffawing. The trailing stories that the main character tells get a person outright laughing.
The descriptions of England and the curiosities that the trio encountered are just delightful. The bizarre antics of three crazy men (and a dog) are splendid. Everything is precisely British, and oh!---how I wish for a nice row down the Thames right about now.

3 Men in a Boat is a great laugh if you are able to understand the stale British taste of humor. Although very time oriented, being in the early 1800s of London, this is a wonderful adaption to our modern world in which we live in today. I wouldn't recommend this reading to someone very young because the humor has vulgar moments but this is clearly a masterpiece work of literature by the one and only Jerome Jerome. Overall this is fun to read if your willing to struggle past the British english.
