Three Men in a Boat: To Say Nothing of the Dog Why did not the men want to use paraffin oil to cook their food in the novel 'Three Men in a Boat'? Asked by rohit17 on 20 Jun 12:33 Last updated by anonymous on 20 Jun 11:03
In the book Three Men in a Boat they declare that paraffin oil must not be taken as they had done so in the past. By the end of that trip they couldn’t rid themselves of its smell.
