1835réf. W2289London: John Murray 1835. Complete in ten volumes. The second Croker edition. The first 8 volumes are 1835 printings; volumes 9 and ten are from 1839. The ten volumes are uniformly bound in a contemporary full light brown leather. In 1831 Murray published a 5-volume edition that included for the first time the additions and notes of Coker. The poorly edited edition was panned by critics notably Macaulay; so the publisher rushed to re-edit the text and published this set in 1835 and 1839. The second edition not only was better edited but it also contained additional illustrations not found in the first edition. The attractive set is in about very good condition: each volume is clean and tight with some edgewear; most volumes have waterstains on covers--see the attached images for an example of the typical stain.

Among the monumental biographies this ranks high. None has been written more in friendship and admiration.

If Johnson blusters we have it here or if he loses his temper or cajoles or gets the worst of an evil bargain. Here it may be accurately stated is "the spitting image" here is the man strutting into your life and sinking haeavily into your biggest chair to regale and revile you. Doubleday hardcover
