Three Men In A Boat- Fingerprint

Three hypochondriacs J, Harris, and George. Montmorency anangelic-looking fox-terrier whose idea of life is to fight withother disreputable dogs.

A boat. And a two-week jaunt up the Thames, from Kingston toOxford.

On a seemingly ordinary evening, J, Harris, and George, sittingin Js room, smoking, talking, and generally feeling seedy, decidethat a boat trip up the Thames is just the thing they need to makethem snap out of their troublesome state (the name of which, theyjust could not decide).

Three Men In A Boat is the fictional account of this motleygroup, as they sail up and down the Thames. Its a part-comicpart-serious travelogue thats full of anecdotes and vividlydescriptive pieces on the places and the characters that the threemen pass on their trip. Though they set off with much enthusiasm,the three men could have hardly predicted the troubles that wouldfollow them on this jaunt. From tow ropes that have a mind of theirown, to weather that is unbelievably unreliable, pineapple tin cansthat refuse to open, and the mysterious disappear-ance of Harrisand a pie. This is classic British humour with its timelessness andend urability.
