Jerome K. Jerome – Three Men in a Boat – First Edition 1889
£375.00
A first edition, first printing published by Arrowsmith in 1889. A very good/near fine copy marred only by light loss to the top of the spine. The gilt titling is superb. Shows 11 Quay Street to the title page. Ownership stamp and name to prelims. A superb copy as most look like they’ve been on a boat. One of the most praised things about Three Men in a Boat is how undated it appears to modern readers – the jokes have been praised as fresh and witty.
