London Journal 1762-1763

Edinburgh-born James Boswell, At Twenty-two, Kept A Daily Diary Of His Eventful Second Stay In London From 1762 To 1763. This Journal, Not Discovered For More Than 150 Years, Is A Deft, Frank And Artful Record Of Adventures Ranging From His Vividly Recounted Love Affair With A Covent Garden Actress To His First Amusingly Bruising Meeting With Samuel Johnson, To Whom Boswell Would Later Become Both Friend And Biographer. The London Journal 1762-63 Is A Witty, Incisive And Compellingly Candid Testament To Boswell's Prolific Talents.
