The story of James Boswell's search for a wife, a young man often in-and-out of love and that ends in marriage--a delightful journey, as revealed in these private papers of James Boswell. Also revealed is the time of crisis in his relationship to his father, Lord Auchinleck, over a much resented re-marriage. And he tells of two visits to London with brilliant conversation with Samuel Johnson and a comic adventure of a role he played as an armed Corsican chief at Garrick's Shakespeare Jubilee in Stratford-on-Avon, where the ceremonies were drowned in torrential rains. A delightful book. 390 pages including pull-out maps of England and Scotland, Genealogical Tables, and Index. 9.5 x 6.5 inches. Mcgraw-Hill, New York, Toronto, London, 1956.
