Three Men in a Boat and Three Men on the Bummel (Oxfords Worlds Classics)

by Jerome K Jerome

Three Men in a Boat and Three Men on the Bummel (Oxfords Worlds Classics) Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

This volume stands as the only available critical edition of two of the most popular classics in English literature. Three Men in a Boat describes a comic expedition by middle-class Victorians up the Thames to Oxford, providing along the way brilliant snap-shots of London's playground in the late 1880s. In Three Men on the Bummel, the three Englishmen escape from the claustrophobia of suburban life some ten years later to go on a cycling tour in the Black Forest of Germany.

Synopsis:

"Three Men in a Boat" describes a comic expedition by middle-class Victorians up the Thames to Oxford, and "Three Men on the Bummel" records a similar escapade - a break from the claustrophobia of suburban life some ten years later, as they take a cycling tour in the Black Forest.
