..........Jerome

Jerome was the central character of the novel, "Three Men in a Boat." He was a peace and leisure-loving character. He wanted to pass his life in a peaceful environment of the village. Because of this, he suggested his friends that they should pass their holidays in the natural surrounding of the village. At the same time, we also come to know that he had a great liking for nature also. To some extent, we can also say that Jerome was a lazy character. He tried to avoid work, and for that, he made every reason for his ailments. He openly declared that he had every disease except a housemaid's knee. However, we could find a high degree of friendship in his character. He always tried to avoid creating tension for his friends. He brilliantly read the demands of situations and finds a suitable way. It was the remarkable sign of his friendly character.

Harris

Harris appeared to be a practical young man, who could not see much romanticism in the world around him. He was fond of drinking and was not too fond of working hard. He did not seem to have much imagination and was more aggressive than the other two. He was also very fond of eating. He had a strange fascination for cemeteries and tombs and would like to visit graveyards, unlike the narrator He did not have much aesthetic sense and dressed in loud colours like orange and yellow, which did not suit him. He was a terrible singer and could never remember the words of a song. He did think he was a great comic singer, though, and often sang comic songs, which ended up being not very funny. He similarly thought he could cook well but as the incident with the eggs showed, he was not a good cook either. In addition, he was a frank and outspoken young man, which was evident when he ensured that George did not play his Banjo within his hearing.

George

George was employed at a bank, where the only work his friends thought he did was sleep. He hated work of any kind. He had some knowledge of the ways of the world and was the one to give sensible advice and suggestions such as the articles that should be taken along on the trip-the clothes, food, etc. He was more calm and less aggressive than Harris. He too did not appear to have much sense of style, as evident from the loud blazer he had bought for the trip George did not like spending much thought on trivial as he remarked that "if anything was broken, it was broken." He did not exert himself too much, and was the last one to offer to do anything that required physical labour. He was not very quick-witted and depended on others to lead him. He loved laughing at others, but did not enjoy it much when the joke turned on him. He was keen to play the banjo, but he played quite badly and even turned a cheerful song into a mournful tune. He had some knowledge of cooking, however, as can be seen by the fact that he made a healthy Irish Stew.
