Three Men in a Boat: The novel Three Men in a Boat, written by Jerome K. Jerome, is a story about a boat trip that J. takes with Thames River and his friends George and William Samuel Harris. The author's prose is long-winding and digresses into anecdotes or observational passages quite often.
The three men are based on Jerome himself (the narrator Jerome K. Jerome) and two real-life friends, George Wingrave (who would become a senior manager at Barclays Bank and Carl Hentschel (the founder of a London printing business, called Harris in the book), with whom Jerome often took boating trips. The dog, Montmorency, is entirely fictionalbut, "as Jerome admits, developed out of that area of inner consciousness which, in all Englishmen, contains an element of the dog".The trip is a typical boating holiday of the time in a Thames camping stiff .This was just after commercial boat traffic on the Upper Thames had died out, replaced by the 1880s craze for boating as a leisure activity.
