Three Men in a Boat - To Say Nothing of the Dog
Three Men in a Boat is a humorous account by Jerome K. Jerome of a boating holiday on the Thames between Kingston and Oxford. The book was intended initially to be a serious travel guide, with accounts of local history of places along the route, but the humorous elements eventually took over, to the point where the serious and somewhat sentimental passages now seem like an unnecessary distraction to the essentially comic novel. One of the most praised things about Three Men in a Boat is how undated it appears to modern readers. The jokes seem fresh and witty even today. [Reformatted August 2, 2008 for Kindle].

The criteria for their inclusion are that they must be simple, they must hurt and they must work in close-in fighting.No streetfighting education is complete without the arsenal of nasty tricks in this book..
