"[Johnson's and Boswell's journals, describing their Scottish journey of 1773 (when they were sixty-three and thirty-two years old, and had been friends for ten years)], published together here, perfectly complement each other. Johnson's majestic prose and hawk eye for curious detail take in everything from the stone arrowheads found in the Hebrides, to the 'medicinal' water of Loch Ness and 'the mischiefs of emigration.' Meanwhile, it is very lucky that as Johnson was observing Scotland, Boswell was observing Johnson. His record is perceptive, highly entertaining and full of sardonic wit; for him, as for us, it is an appetizer for The Life of Johnson."
A journey to the western islands of Scotland originally published: London : Printed for W. Strachan, 1775 - The journal of a tour to the Hebrides, 3rd ed., originally published: London : Charles Dilly, 1786
