Thursday Night Book Club - Three Men In A Boat (To Say Nothing Of The Dog)

Three Men In A Boat (To Say Nothing Of The Dog) by Jerome K. Jerome – 178 pages
"Three Men In A Boat" is a funny story about three friends named J., George, and Harris. They decide to go on a boating trip along the Thames River to get away from their busy lives. During their journey, they face many funny problems like setting up a tent and meeting interesting people. The book is a mix of humor, travel, and adventure, and it's a great read if you want to relax and have a good laugh.

Three Men in a Boat, published in 1889, became an instant success and has never been out of print. In its first twenty years alone, the book sold over a million copies worldwide. It has been adapted to films, TV, and radio shows, stage plays, and a musical, and influenced subsequent writers such as P. G. Wodehouse, James Thurber, and Nick Hornby. It ranks among The Guardian’s top one hundred best English novels of all time.
