Description

Notoriously and self-confessedly intemperate, James Boswell shared with his friend Samuel Johnson a huge appetite for 18th-century life and threw equal energy into recording its every aspect in his vivacious daily JOURNALS. The result is a masterpiece that brims with wit, anecdote and originality and still today continues to enjoy its status as a classic of the language.
