Download Three Men in a Boat, Jerome K. Jerome, Penguin Adult, 2004 Three Men in a Boat, Jerome K. Jerome, Penguin Adult, 2004, 0141441216, 9780141441214, 224 pages. A comic masterpiece that has never been out of print since it was first published in 1889, Jerome K. Jerome's Three Men in a Boat includes an introduction and notes by Jeremy Lewis in Penguin Classics. Martyrs to hypochondria and general seediness, J. and his friends George and Harris decide that a jaunt up the Thames would suit them to a 'T'. But when they set off, they can hardly predict the troubles that lie ahead with tow-ropes, unreliable weather forecasts and tins of pineapple chunks - not to mention the devastation left in the wake of J.'s small fox-terrier Montmorency. Three Men in a Boat was an instant success when it appeared in 1889, and, with its benign escapism, authorial discursions and wonderful evocation of the late-Victorian 'clerking classes', it hilariously captured the spirit of its age. In his introduction, Jeremy Lewis examines Jerome K. Jerome's life and times, and the changing world of Victorian England he depicts - from the rise of a new mass-culture of tabloids and bestselling novels to crazes for daytripping and bicycling. Jerome K. Jerome (1859-1927) was born in Walstall, Staffordshire, and educated at Marylebone Grammar School. He left school at fourteen to become a railway clerk, the first in a long line of jobs that included actor, teacher and journalist. His first book, On Stage and Off, a collection of humorous pieces about the theatre, was published in 1885, and was followed the year after with the more commercially-successful The Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow; but it was with Three Men in a Boat (1889) that Jerome achieved lasting fame. He later went on to become one of the founders of the humorous magazine, The Idler, and continued to write articles and plays.

    JEROME K. JEROME: A BIBLIOGRAPHY OF HIS WORK IN ENGLISH By FRANK RODGERS and ANDREW P. READ CONTENTS BOOKS WRITTEN BY JEROME ANTHOLOGIES OF JEROME’S WORK BOOKS WITH CONTRIBUTIONS SUBMITTED BY JEROME PERIODICALS EDITED BY JEROME ANTHOLOGIES CONTAINING JEROME’S WORK PERIODICAL ARTICLES BY JEROME NEWSPAPER ARTICLES BY JEROME NEWSPAPER CORRESPONDENCE BY JEROME UNPUBLISHED PLAYS BY JEROME INDEX TO TITLES OF BOOKS BY JEROME AND ANTHOLOGIES OF HIS WORKS INTRODUCTION This is the first detailed bibliography of Jerome’s work in the English language. It takes the record up to the year 2000, after which the spate of “publication on demand” versions renders it pointless to continue. We have resisted the temptation to label it “complete” or “comprehensive” because to do so would seem presumptuous. Jerome was so prolific and his periodical articles were published in such a wide variety of journals, that despite our best efforts some will undoubtedly have escaped us. We hope that any reader of our work who is aware of omissions will submit the information to us, supplying a jpg image of the title-page in the case of books. Information about corrections or omissions may be sent to [email protected] The main section of the work, by far the longest, is a list of the books written by Jerome, arranged in chronological order by their first date of publication; this is followed by a list of anthologies of his work, also arranged chronologically. They are numbered serially, and subsequent editions of each book are numbered sequentially. So, for example, the eight editions that we have identified of his first book, On the Stage – and Off, are numbered 1-1 to 1-8.
