My Life and Times

The autobiography offers a glimpse into the life of Jerome K. Jerome, a humorous author who faced early adversity after losing both parents in his teens. Forced to leave school, he eventually found success with his 1889 work, "Three Men in a Boat," which humorously chronicles his adventures with friends on the Thames. This book not only solidified his literary reputation but also sparked a significant increase in Thames boat registrations. The new edition includes a biography that enriches the understanding of his life and times.
