Al hilo de sus aventuras y sus bromas, el lector se sumerge en la hermosa campiña inglesa en un relato donde el humor se combina sabiamente con el documental sobre viajes, pues se trata del libro del Támesis por excelencia, contado con un estilo rápido, ágil, que encubre una inteligencia literaria que sólo poseen los grandes humoristas ingleses.

Es gibt zahlreiche Geschichten über Hunde, aber wer hat schon einmal von einem geldgierigen Vertreter dieser Art gehört? Johannes Steck erzählt eine Geschichte von Jerome K. Jerome über Habgier, die zuweilen sogar bei einem Hund vorkommt.

Was machen drei junge, hypochondrische Freunde samt einem neurotischen Foxterrier, wenn sie dem Wetter entfliehen wollen und wilde Abenteuer suchen? Sie packen Blazer, Hut und Schlips ein und fahren in einem Ruderboot auf der Themse in die Wildnis hinauf. Doch sie haben den Büchsenöffner vergessen, die Zahnbürste ist unauffindbar, und wenn sie einem Schild begegnen, auf dem steht "Achtung! Gefahr! Nicht hier entlang!", dann steuern sie schnurstracks in ihr Verderben.

The third and final collection in this series of reflections written by one of the wittiest and most whimsical men to press pen against paper. As well as his usual take on the foibles of his fellow Englishmen and women, Jerome ruminates, in his typically liberal fashion, about far-flung countries such as Russia, Africa and China. Jerome was never a 'jelly-bellied flag-flapping imperialist', and his vision, experience and worldliness are revealed to us over multiple essays.

The British, it is often said, have a stiff upper lip and a dry sense of humour. It's true, we usually do, and in the case of this perfect compendium of short stories we absolutely do. Listen to our Scottish raconteur J. M. Barrie and English wits Jerome K. Jerome and Edward Lear for perfect proof of that. But humour is many things and from many places, so we also feature Mark Twain, our very talented American friend, to complete this rather witty and clever volume of short stories.

While pretending to be an account of an epic journey rowing a boat up the Thames, this hilarious audiobook makes memorable side trips into such matters as hypochondria, the charms of graves and epitaphs, being lost in a maze, and how to sing a comic song - all explored with wit and elegance.

After his final trip up the river Thames with his three companions - - Harris, George, and Montmorency the dog - - Jerome K. Jerome sat down to write his proposed book, The Story of the Thames. But before he could tackle the work in the serious manner intended, his humor took over and gave birth to a masterpiece of unquenchable comedy. This is a classic of English humor, justifiably loved around the world.

Martyrs to hypochondria and general seediness, J. and his friends George and Harris decide that a jaunt up the Thames would suit them just fine. 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.
