Description
Three Men on Wheels. Copyright, 1899 by Jerome K. Jerome, in the Saturday Evening Post as Three Men on Four Wheels; Copyright, 1900 by Jerome K. Jerome.
University Press, John Wilson & Son, Cambridge USA.
Published in Britain as Three Men on a Bummel, Jeromes comedy Three Men on Wheels (1st American ed, 1890) is the story of a cycling tour through the Black Forest in Germany. Jerome making fun of the Germans for their lack of humor and criticizing British travelers for going abroad only to look down their noses at foreign cultures. …There are two ways you can get exercise out of a bicycle. you can overhaul it, or you can ride it. On the whole, I am not sure that the man who takes his pleasure overhauling does not have the best of the bargain. He is independent of the weather and the wind; the state of the roads troubles him not.
