Three Men In A BoatThree Men in a Boat (To Say Nothing of the Dog!), published 1889, is a humorous account by Jerome K. Jerome of a boating holiday on the Thames between Kingston and Oxford. The book was intended initially to be serious, with accounts of local history of places along the route, but the humorous elements eventually took over. The three men were based on Jerome himself and two friends (one of whom went on to become a manager of Barclays Bank), but the dog was entirely fictional. There was a not-so-successful sequel, about a cycling tour in Europe, entitled Three Men on the Bummel. External links
