Sobre este artículo
James Boswell, 9th Laird of Auchinleck (1740-1795) was a Scottish lawyer. In 1762, he traveled to London for the second time—James Boswell's London Journal is the diary he kept. Along with many more of his private papers, it was found in the 1920s at Ireland's Malahide Castle, when it became the property of Yale University; McGraw Hill published it in 1950. In it, one of the most notable events is Boswell's meeting Samuel Johnson; this led to his writing Boswell's Life of Johnson, the greatest biography ever written.
This copy is a first edition. No dust jacket. The gold on the spine has worn off to about 60%. There is some loosening to the binding and some darkening of the paper. Otherwise pristine.
