About this ebook

Joan Allway means to reform the world through journalism and finds the world has arrangements of its own — a married politician, a war, and a slum parish. Jerome was orphaned at fifteen and worked as a railway clerk, a schoolmaster and an actor before Three Men in a Boat, which he meant as a serious travel guide; this 1919 novel is his most earnest book, written by a man who had driven an ambulance in France at fifty-six. Sixty plates of painting by Walter Sickert and John Lavery, from Jack the Ripper's Bedroom to When the boats come in, carry the novel's London streets and wartime France across the page.
