Seller's Description:
Very Good in Good jacket. Size: 8vo-over 7; Type: Hardback 1951 Printing. Hardcover in Very Good Condition with a Good Dust Jacket which is cllipped but original price is intact on flap. Samuel Johnson (18 September 1709-13 December 1784), often referred to as Dr Johnson, was an English writer who made lasting contributions to English literature as a poet, essayist, moralist, literary critic, biographer, editor and lexicographer. Book is bound in brown cloth binding with gilt titles and decoration on spine, very clean and unmarked, upper front corner is gently bumped, quite small, spine heel a bit compressed-remarkably nice condition. Rough cut. Tight, solid and square. Internals are lightly and evenly toned otherwise in Fine Condition. Brown jacket with illustration of Johnson, white titles, clean, some corners and spine head and heel chipped, now in archival protective cover. This book is about the greatest talker who ever lived and there is a great deal of his talk in it. It is a very human portrait of Johnson and his immediate circle. James Boswell is, of course, a source of much information but there are also conversations and letters that were not available at the time Boswell wrote about Johnson. 348 pages indexed. 8.6 x 5.75 inches. 1951, Bell Publishing Company, Drexel Hill, PA, USA.
