Three Men in a Boat is considered an important work of the Victorian comic texts, affording the reader a genuine insight into the morals and social mores of the period. It shares this status with George Grossmith's The Diary of a Nobody, though Three Men in a Boat is less targeted in its satire of class differences and social pretensions.
