Hardback. Condizione: Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Fine. First Thus. BOSWELL'S JOURNAL OF A TOUR TO THE HEBRIDES with Samuel Johnson 1773 Editors Frederick A. Pottle and Charles H. Bennett. William Heinemann. 1963 First Thus. 520pp Illustrated Hardback. This copy is in fine, unmarked condition, bright white, tight and square. bound in publisher's original blue linen covered boards with bright gilt titling to the spine and device to the front. The unclipped dust wrapper has some minimal edge wear but is entire and has now been covered in clear, removable protective film. This account by Samuel Johnson, originally published in 1775. The Journey was the result of a three-month trip to Scotland that Johnson took with James Boswell in 1773. It contains Johnson's descriptions of the customs, religion, education, trade, and agriculture of a society that was new to him. The account in Boswell's diary, published after Johnson's death as The Journal of a Tour to the Hebrides, with Samuel Johnson, LL.D. (1785), offers an intimate personal record of Johnson's behaviour and conversation during the trip. Samuel Johnson was born in 1709 and died in 1784--a long life, though one marred by depression and fear of death. Samuel Johnson's literary reputation rests on such a varied output that he defies easy description: poet, critic, lexicographer, travel writer, essayist, editor, and, with his good friend and fellow traveller James Boswell, a biographer.
