From the Publisher:
What literary "doubles act" can ever equal that of Samuel Johnson and James Boswell? Well, two 20th-century English men-of-letters came close, with this witty and well-written account of their 1936 travels through Scotland in the two-hundred-year-old footsteps of The Great Cham and his biographer.
Review:
"A delightful literary exercise. . . . [The authors] tell excellent stories and they make . . . an extremely good book out of their stravaiging." -- The New York Times Book Review
"Quaint...and original; full of pawky humor, of the fragrance of Highland scents and the beauty of its scenes..." -- Christian Science Monitor
“... especially recommended for readers of ‘literary’ travel stories.” -- Midwest Book Review
