 The narator partrays Harris as a man of no emotion.He is not in the habit of crying. He also does not know why it is so . He is also a jolly man .He is always after some sort of drink in the offering . When everybody is worried he simply comes out wit a solution . The author is of the opinion that harris always does know about a place round the corner where you can get something brilliant in the drinking line. Harris is a easy going person who cares little about other things

Character sketch of George -

George was a bank clerk (who 'goes to sleep at a bank from ten to four each day, except Saturdays, when they wake him up and put him outside at two ') and was living in a back room of the same house. The landlady suggested that, to save money, the two might share a room. They 'chummed ' together for some years - both shared a love of the theatre -and a life-long friendship was formed. George, who remained a bachelor, rose to become manager of Barclays Bank in theStrandand outlived.

Character sketch of Jerome -

Jerome is the narrator of the book. He is a young, single middle-class man living inLondon, much like the author himself at the time of the publication of the book, and the initial J is possibly meant to suggest that he stands in for Jerome.

J is fond of history and literature and spends much of his time daydreaming about the days when knights roamed the countryside ofEngland. This daydreaming sometimes gets him into trouble when he does not pay suitable attention to what he is doing.

J, like his two friends on the boat trip, is a little vain and conceited, but he realizes it and pokes gentle fun at himself, his friends, and the habits of others like them through his anecdotes, where he and his friends are often the butt of ego-skewering jokes.

J has always been fond of boats, but prefers the old fashioned...

Character sketch of Montmorency -

Montmorency is the dog that accompanied the three men in their river trip.

Montmorency looked like an angel sent to Earth in the form of a small Fox Terrier. He had a gentle noble expression, which brought tears to the eyes of elderly folk. When Montmorency first arrived, the author thought that he would not live long. But, he soon changed his opinion about Montmorency when his true nature was exposed. The author had to pay for chickens Montmorency had killed and had to drag him out of umpty street fights. Once Montmorency killed the neighbors cat and on one occassion he had kept a man stuck in his own toolshed for about two hours. The authors gardener made money by betting on Montmorencys rat-killing skills. He liked to roam around and fight with dogs of a similar disreputable nature.

GEORGE- employed at a bank, where the only work his friends thought he did was sleep had some knowledge of the ways of the world and was the one to give sensible advice and suggestions, such as the articles that should be taken along on the trip, the clothes, food, etc. calmer and less aggressive than Harris. did not appear to have much sense of style, however, as evident from the loud blazer he had bought for the trip. did not like spending much thought on trivial matters as he remarked that ‘if anything was broken, it was broken.’ last one to offer to do anything that required physical labour. not very quick-witted and depended on the others to lead him. He loved laughing at others but did not enjoy it much when the joke turned on him. keen to learn to play the Banjo, but he played quite badly and even turned a cheerful song into a mournful tune some knowledge of cooking, as can be seen by the fact that he made a healthy Irish Stew.

Harris runs a full circle in characteristics; he is rather funny, often quiet(though loud, obnoxious, and rude when angry), and also prone to be a little more than lazy. He's one of those people that simply waits for the next guy to get something done rather than do it himself. Harris also likes to drink (drinking makes him short tempered), and he can be boastful.

Harris does not want to sleep outside, he is not poetic. He was fond of drinks and food and he love to take responsibilities but later he put on others . He don't want work but uncle Podger like to work. His boastful nature always made him in trouble . He was not a good cook , frank, outspoken boy .He love to dress in loud colours and a terrible singer.

The character sketch of Harris in Three Men in A Boat is as follows:
 

The character Harris in Three Men in A Boat is an extremely vain person who often shows that he works very hard. According to the narrator, he is adept at undertaking a job and then putting it on others’ backs. When he undertakes a job, he creates a commotion much like the narrator’s uncle Podger.  Harris is very outspoken and does not mind offending his friends with his frankness. In the novel, he tells George that his new blazer could be hung over a flower-bed to frighten the birds away in early spring. In the bargain, he upset George. Harris also deludes himself by thinking he has a good voice. But in reality, the author states that all of Harris’ friends think that he does not. In the novel, he forgets the words of the song and blames the musicians for his failure. He also has a fascination for tombs and this annoys J. He also has a foul temper and his friends prefer to let him have his rant rather than talk to him when he is angry. Harris is extremely fond of alcohol and can accompany his friends for a drink at any time of the day. According to the narrator, he always knows a place round the corner where one can get a brilliant drink. He is unmarried and always lives for the moment.

Harris?s Character

Harris is the funniest character in the story 'Three
Men in a Boat'. His extreme ideas about certain things in life were quite funny
and ridiculous. Singing was one of them. He?had a conceited misconception
about his singing abilities. Harris's friends who had heard him sing believe he
must not be allowed to sing. Once, Harris got an opportunity to sing at a
party. Everyone was quite excited to hear him sing. He surprised everyone by
saying he would sing a comic song! As Harris began singing, he paid least
botheration to follow the singing conventions such as correct phrasing,
vocalization, maintaining proper scale and pitch of voice. While singing, he
would stop in the middle of the song, and start arguing with the pianist. He
would restart the song and keep on repeating just the first three lines until
he forgot the song and again stop singing. Then he would start again, this time
standing in front of the piano and ask the gathering to sing with him in
chorus. The gathering would start singing, nobody knowing what to sing. Then
the pianist would complain about Harris's song and scale. Harris would change
the pianist.
