Reviews

This edition of Johnson's Journey and Boswell's Tour is executed with an editorial care that elevates it head and shoulders above most editions aimed,... Textually, it occupies a very high tier: its retention of italicized words is superior to the Yale edition's romanized type, and its annotative richness similarly outflanks the Yale effort ... Scholars and teachers not only will be pleased to assign this book to students but ought themselves to enjoy having a sound and conveniently sized volume that they can take on their own travels. * A. W. Lee, 1650 - 1850: Ideas, Aesthetics, and Inquiries in the Early Modern Era *
