Samuel Johnson and the Impact of Print:

by ALVIN B. KERNAN

'Writing as he does with energy and grace, Kernan is a thoughtful guide to the world Johnson lived in and helped to make...What is best about Kernan's book is that it is up to date but not voguish; he has assimilated new scholarship but not been overpowered by it.' - W.B. Carnochan, The Times Literary Supplement
