Philadelphia: John F. Watson 1810. First American edition 8vo pp. xvi 2 412; contemporary marbled boards rebacked and retipped new red morocco label on spine; title a bit browned else a very good sound copy. Another edition was published in Boston later the same year. "Though the Life is a vaster and richer piece of work no one will maintain that it displays Boswell's unique gift for biography better than the Tour. Indeed most lovers of Boswell will agree that the Tour as a whole is more consistently good than the Life; that is that nowhere in the Life could one find so many consecutive first-class pages as those that compose this book" Pottle. The book published is almost the same as the actual journal that was kept in 1773. When Johnson's death made it possible for Boswell to publish the manuscript he only added an introduction and a conclusion before giving it to the printer. Pottle 63. John F. Watson unknown

Samuel Johnson byname Dr. Johnson born September 18 1709 Lichfield Staffordshire England - died December 13 1784 London English critic biographer essayist poet and lexicographer regarded as one of the greatest figures of 18th-century life and letters. Johnson once characterized literary biographies as "mournful narratives" and he believed that he lived "a life radically wretched." Yet his career can be seen as a literary success story of the sickly boy from the Midlands who by talent tenacity and intelligence became the foremost literary figure and the most formidable conversationalist of his time. For future generations Johnson was synonymous with the later 18th century in England. The disparity between his circumstances and achievement gives his life its especial interest. - Britannica George Routledge and Sons, Limited hardcover

Boswell, James
The Life of Samuel Johnson LL.D. Comprehending an Account of His Studies and Numerous Works in Chrononlogical Order; a Series of His Epistolary Correspondence and Conversations with Many Eminent Persons and Various Original Pieces of His Composition Two Volumes
London: Charles Dilly. Printer: Henry Baldwin 1791. Half Morocco. Paper pastedown on boards. Custom cloth slipcase custom cloth dust jacket. Near Fine. 4to. 28.5 by 23 cm. Frontis portrait of Johnson after Reynolds painting engraved by J. Heath. Title Dedication to Reynolds -- vii Table of Contents unpaginated with Corrections and Additions 16 1-516 second title Advertisement -- pagination to xii 1-588 pp. followed by Facsimles of Johnson's hand writing plate. Round Robin plate also present -- Vol. 2 by p. 92. First issue -- "gve in second indented quote line p. 135. Condition: morocco of bindings with some wear -- typical rubbing along joints some along raised bands. Interior: scattered mostly light foxing generally by upper and lower margins or early and final leaves and here and there elsewhere but overall a clean-ish copy and few would find such soiling disconcerting we believe. A very handsome copy of this classic seminal and really sui generis biogaphy of the great Dr. Johnson that more than simply a recounting of his life captures his personality and originality. And a work in which Dr. Johnson can entertain us more than two centuries later almost as if we were present as he was holding forth. Charles Dilly. Printer: Henry Baldwin unknown
