Dr. Johnson's Age,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Samuel Johnson and the Making of Modern England (Hardcover)
A fine scholar's view of the emergence of England, in terms of society, economics, politics, and empire, when Samuel Johnson stode the earth.
This book will be most enjoyed by those especially interested in 18th century England and Dr. Johnson and, after having been read, deserves a place on the home bookshelf. I do think those who already have read a general biography or two about Dr. Johnson (James Boswell's remains one of the best biographies ever written) will enjoy Professor Hudson's book more than those who will read it with no prior knowledge of this great man's life. |
