Three Men In A Boat describes the story of three friends, the narrator Jerome, Harris and George, who set off on a boating holiday, along with the dog, Montmorency, which is a fox terrier. The trip is an outcome of an evening when the three of them spend time smoking, while discussing the illnesses they think they suffer from. They come to a conclusion that they need a holiday, because they all suffer from 'overwork'.

The book originally began as a travel guidebook, but later turned into a humorous piece of work. But because of this, the narrator describes the villages and landmarks that they come across during the journey extensively. Also, in Three Men In A Boat, you'll find musings on the history of these places.

Throughout the book, the author frequently brings into the picture humorous anecdotes that aim to entertain the reader. Most of these are based on topics like fishing and boating. It also includes pieces of classic comedy, that appear fresh and witty, even to modern readers.

Three Men In A Boat was authored by Jerome K. Jerome, and published in 1889. It was intended to be a serious travel guide, due to which the book has serious and sentimental parts interspersed with the humorous elements of the book. The book has had an international influence, especially in Russia, where it bagged a place into the required reading for literature in their schools' curricula.
