London: The Folio Society, 2006. Hardcover. Fine. Neat redesigned quarter Cloth Folio Society edition of Boswell's journal, written during a year in London whilst 22, that was only found much later and published in 1950. Interesting for containing his first meeting with Samuel Johnson and for the recorded conversations, which were sometime salacious, not least when he confronts his mistress over his catching a venereal disease. With colour images. Complete with slipcase. With an introduction by Frederick Pottle. One tiny dot mark to fore-edge, else pristine. Fine condition.
