George, Harry y Jerome protagonistas también de Tres hombres en una barca necesitados de un profundo cambio en sus vidas, emprenden un nuevo periplo: esta vez viajan a Alemania para desentrañar la idiosincrasia germana. Dados sus temples tan distintos, cada uno concurre con sus propios disparates al desmán común, precipitándose a través de una serie de escenas de naturaleza muy diferente a la que habrían deseado, y mucho menos previsto, y con resultados aún más delirantes, si cabe, que en su anterior aventura. Jerome recrea los tópicos sobre el antagonismo entre alemanes y británicos para generar comicidad, siempre con esa fineza irónica que ofrece segundas interpretaciones, siempre con esa facilidad literaria que caracteriza a uno de los primeros escritores ingleses que abandonó los esquemas victorianos para contribuir con su ingenio a sentar las bases de la novela contemporánea.

In this sequel to Jerome K. Jerome's most famous work «Three Men in a Boat (To Say Nothing of the Dog)» we have a reunion of the three companions from the first book, minus the dog, who are setting out on a bicycle tour through the Black Forest of Germany. Written near the end of the Victorian bicycle craze in which bicycles became a common fixture amongst the middle-class for recreational purposes, «Three Men on the Bummel» is a masterfully humorous depiction of the era. With numerous comic mishaps Jerome crafts a travelogue in which fans of the first book will find an entertaining and funny addition to the story of these three interesting characters.
