'I fell out of bed laughing at Three Men in a Boat' Guardian

What could be more relaxing than a refreshing holiday on the river with your two best friends and faithful canine companion, Montmorency?

Jerome K. Jerome's delightful novel has kept readers smiling for years and his prose has found a perfect partner in Vic Reeves's glorious and witty illustrations.
