181049751Philadelphia: John F. Watson 1810. Hardcover. 8vo. Rebound in modern brown cloth with gilt spine lettering. xvi 414pp. Very good overall. Rebind is pristine and fresh while text block is moderately age toned and foxed sporadically throughout with bit of old dampstain to preliminary leaves. First American edition of this travelogue originally published in London in 1785 -- here "From the London Edition Revised and Corrected by the Author." Two versions of the first edition were published in 1810 and since both the other being New York/Boston Inskeep and Bradford were printed by R. & W. Carr of Philadelphia and differ only in title page it's arguable that Philly publisher Watson's copies hit the bookshops sooner than those shipped to New York and Boston -- not a certain precedence though so either imprint are considered first editions. Interestingly remounted to the front pastedown is the late 19th century "Library of the Young Men's Christian Association" bookplate of Harrisburg Pennsylvania -- which explains the printed "Bequest of the / Hon. Simon Cameron" label above this for when Lincoln's Secretary of War and Pennsylvania senator died in 1877 he was buried in Harrisburg and apparently his books were bequested to the local YMCA. Though rebound a decent and quite handleable first with an intriguing provenance. SHAW AND SHOEMAKER 19607. John F. Watson hardcover

Complete with half-title and errata.'Though the Life is a vaster and richer piece of work no one will maintain that it displays Boswell's unique gift for biography better than the Tour. Indeed most lovers of Boswell will agree that the Tour as a whole is more consistently good than the Life; that is that nowhere in the Life could one find so many consecutive first-class pages as those that compose this book' Pottle. The printed book is almost identical with the actual journal that was kept in 1773. When Johnson's death made it possible for Boswell to publish the manuscript he only added an introduction and a conclusion before handing it over to the printer.
