‎Oxford: At The Clarendon Press 1887. First Edition Edited by George Birkbeck Hill of the most famous biography in the English language. "The definitive edition with copious annotations and a model index." Encyc. Brit. 11th Edn. �This has so long held the field as the one edition for scholarly use that it is most unlikely it will every be superseded��Hill�s purpose was�to surround Boswell�s book with as rich a mass of illustrative comment concerning �the literature and literary men in Great Britain� during the latter half of the eighteenth century as he could find reasonable connexion for in the allusions of the text�His references to parallel passages in Johnson�s own works constitute one of the most valuable features of the edition as the index to the Life serves in some measure as a concordance to the Works. The mass of pertinent illustrative material from other books shows Hill to have been easily the best-read of all the editors after Malone�The great mass of pertinent matter from other books the fullness and convenience of the index and the uniform accuracy of the references make the edition one of the few indispensable tools for all workers in the eighteenth century.� Pottle NCBEL II 1214.

Francis Wise at Ellsfield near Oxford; Residence of Thomas Davies Covent Garden; Residence of George Steevens Hampstead Heath; Dr. S. Johnson's House Bolt Court Fleet Street; Kettel Hall Oxford; Residence of Catherine Clive Twickenham; The Life of Samuel Johnson LL.D. first published in 1791 is a biography of Dr. Samuel Johnson written by James Boswell. The work was a popular and critical success when first published. It is regarded as an important stage in the development of the modern genre of biography; many have claimed it as the greatest biography written in English but some modern critics object that the work cannot be considered a proper biography. While Boswell's personal acquaintance with his subject only began in 1763 when Johnson was 54 years old Boswell covered the entirety of Johnson's life by means of additional research. The biography takes many critical liberties with Johnson's life as Boswell makes various changes to Johnson's quotations and even censors many comments. Nonetheless modern biographers have found Boswell's biography an important source of information on Johnson and his times. Pottle 92. <br/><br/> London: John Murray, 1835 hardcover‎
