Three men in a boat

Author: Jerome K. Jerome Pages: 184 Three men in a boat is a humorous classic about three hypochondriacs, together they set out sailing on the river Thames hoping to cure their syndromes. The three men are George, Harris And J (the narrator) accompanied by Montmorency (the dog). The three men believe they suffer from every sickness but housemaids knee, they are worried by this, because they are used to having every sickness in the medical book. J visits the doctor to find out why he doesn't have housemaids knee, there he is told that the only way to cure his deceases is to relax on the river side. While on their journey they get to meet each other, and experience many funny moments, due to them being Hypochondriacs. All of their tasks are done with extreme care and precaution, putting up tents means that the 3 of them will hammer down one nail in order for it to be deep enough in the ground. I think that this is a timeless classic, it remains funny even though it is a century old. It is the funniest book I have ever read, it not only shows how extremely scared the three men are but how they pull every one around them into having the same fear. This is defiantly a book every one can enjoy and have have a good laugh while reading it.
