Long before the Life of Johnson, James Boswell kept a commonplace book of anecdotes, jokes and sayings he heard in Edinburgh and London society. This edition prints it in full, along with Uxoriana, the remarks of his wife, a memoir of Boswell by Charles Rogers and an introduction by Richard Monckton Milnes.
An intimate look at the habits of the greatest of biographers, rich in the talk of his age. Download the free EPUB.
