Publisher's summary

Three Men in a Boat is one of the most amusing and durable books in the English language. Semi-autobiographical, it recounts the adventures and mishaps of George, Harris, J. (the author), and his remarkable dog Montmorency during a boat trip along the Thames from London to Oxford. Jerome K. Jerome originally intended the book to be a guide to the Thames Valley, but his publisher thought it so entertaining it was published as a comic novel and has endured as a classic of the genre ever since. Wonderfully light and surprisingly modern in tone, the sense of fun is irrepressible, the enjoyment unstoppable. Real laugh-out-loud stuff, masterfully narrated by Hugh Laurie.

Possibly the perfect audiobook

Would you listen to Three Men in a Boat again? Why?

I've read TMiaB more times than I can possibly count and plan the read it and listen to it many more, truly bears repetition.

What does Hugh Laurie bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

It feels like Hugh Laurie was born to read the character of J, you'd miss out on his absolutely perfect voicing of the role.

Not as Hilarious as I Was Led to Believe

by bookloving friends who recommended it. Three bumblers (and a dog) decide to take a barge trip down the Thames and run into a series of mishaps and misadventures. Hugh Laurie's superb narration makes it somewhat worth listinging to.
