Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good Plus. First Edition. 2008. xviii, 522pp. Colour and b&w illustartions. SIGNED "Peter Martin" on the title page without dedication. "Benefiting from recent critical scholarship that has explored new attitudes toward Johnson, Martin's biography gives us a human and sympathetic portrait of Dr. Johnson. Johnson's criticism of colonial expansion, his advocacy for the abolition of slavery, his encouragement of women writers, his treatment of his female friends as equals, and his concern for the underprivileged and poor make him a very "modern" figure. The Johnson that emerges from this enthralling biography, published for the tercentenary of Johnson's birth, is still the foremost figure of his age but a more rebellious, unpredictable, flawed, and sympathetic figure than has been previously known."
