About this copy

Jerome K. Jerome's comic classic of three friends and a dog on a Thames boating holiday has delighted readers since 1889. Its gentle wit, mishaps and digressions remain as funny today as ever, and it is rightly regarded as one of the great English comic novels. This is a handsome Olive Classics hardback from Collins, issued exclusively through Boots and presented in its original green pictorial slipcase.

The text is clean and the binding sound, a charming copy of a much-loved book.

Condition

Book
Good. The binding is tight and sound, the pages clean. The green boards show some surface soiling and light rubbing.
Slipcase
Good. The card slipcase shows edge wear, splitting and chipping.

A pre-owned book; any wear beyond that described is minor and in keeping with its age.
