First published in 1900, Three Men on the Bummel is Jerome K. Jerome's much-loved sequel to Three Men in a Boat. This time, the trio trade the river for two wheels and set off on a cycling tour through the Black Forest.

Eleven years older and now settled into married life, George, Harris, and the narrator, J., decide they need a change of scenery. Fondly defined as a Bummel - a roundabout wander with no particular end in view, other than the assured return home at the end of it - the three pack up and point their bicycles towards Germany. Unsurprisingly, trouble follows close behind: contrary machines, baffling timetables, the small uncertainties of travel in a foreign country, and the gentle chaos that follows them wherever they go.
