In 1773 Samuel Johnson and James Boswell travelled from Edinburgh up the east coast to St Andrews and Aberdeen, then into the Highlands and the Hebrides. George Birkbeck Hill, the great editor of Boswell, follows them stage by stage, setting their own words beside the inns, castles and islands as he found them, with drawings by Lancelot Speed.
A companion for anyone who loves Johnson’s Journey and Boswell’s Tour, or plans to walk the route. Download the free EPUB.
