Three Men In A Boat - 1998 (1992 Folio Reprint)
1998 (1992 Folio Reprint).
The Folio Society
, London, England
A candidate for the title of prettiest book in any collection or library, the 72 often full or even double page coloured hand drawn illustrations have to be seen to be fully enjoyed but the original story from 1889 has stood the test of time as an enjoyable and yet true rendition of a hilarious voyage of mishaps and observations by three men and their dog up the Thames River in this famous comic travelogue. A beautiful book in a case, both being in fine near new condition.
