Three Men in a Boat – Complete with all the Illustrations from the Original 1889 Edition (Illustrated) (Reader’s Library Classics)

I can’t sit still and see another man slaving and working. I want to get up and superintend, and walk round with my hands in my pockets, and tell him what to do. It is my energetic nature. I can’t help it. Complete with all the Illustrations from the Original 1889 Edition The classic and timeless humorous story, Three Men in a Boat begins with the eponymous three men sitting around discussing the different needs in their lives. Our heroes conclude that they are indeed overworked and a holiday is in due order. Their brainstorming bore no fruit until they hit upon the idea of taking a boating holiday up the River Thames. Thus begins the famous journey whose lore has now spanned three centuries. Lest we never fail to mention their most trustworthy companion–their dog Montmorency! All the A. Frederics illustrations found in the original 1889 publication are included.
