Three Men in a Boat (To Say Nothing of the Dog) by Jerome K. Jerome (1859 - 1927) LibriVox Three Men in a Boat (To Say Nothing of the Dog), published in 1889, is a humorous account by Jerome K.

The tales tell in a humorous way of his struggles with a new job, new culture, and with his landlord and neighbour Mr. ‘Flurry’ Knox whose prime, if not only, interest is in hunting, which forms the background to all the stories. Miss Somerville was herself the first woman anywhere to become an M.F.H.(Summary by A.J.M.) Some Experiences of an Irish R.M.
