Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow (Annotated)

Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow, published in 1886, is a collection of comical essays by Jerome K. Jerome. It was the author’s second published book and it helped establish him as a leading English humorist. While widely considered one of Jerome’s better works, and in spite of using the same style as Three Men in a Boat, it was never as popular as the latter. A second "Idle Thoughts" book, The Second Thoughts of An Idle Fellow, was published in 1898.
The essays had previously appeared in Home Chimes, the same magazine that later serialized Jerome's Three Men in a Boat.
This edition has been formatted for your reader, with an active table of contents.  It also contains illustrations and extensive annotations about the book and the author, including an overview, content, book excerpts, influence on other literature, trivia, information on Three Men in a Boat, biographical and bibliographical information.
