Three Men in a Boat by Jerome K. Jerome

Wargrave -- Waxworks -- Sonning -- Our stew -- Montmorency is sarcastic -- Fight between Montmorency and the teakettle -- George's banjo studies -- Meet with discouragement -- Difficulties in the way of the musical amateur -- Learning to play the bagpipes -- Harris feels sad after supper -- George and I go for a walk -- Return hungry and wet -- There is a strangeness about Harris -- Harris and the swans, a remarkable story -- Harris has a troubled night.

We caught a breeze, after lunch, which took us gently up past Wargrave and Shiplake. Mellowed in the drowsy sunlight of a summer's afternoon, Wargrave, nestling where the river bends, makes a sweet old picture as you pass it, and one that lingers long upon the retina of memory.
