The Journal of a Tour to the Hebrides with Samuel Johnson, LL.D.
"The Journal of a Tour to the Hebrides with Samuel Johnson, LL.D." by James Boswell is a travel journal published in 1785. The work chronicles Boswell and Samuel Johnson's 1773 journey through the Scottish Highlands and western islands. Based on Boswell's detailed diary entries, the journal captures their conversations and experiences as they traveled from Edinburgh through remote islands including Skye, Coll, and Mull. Known for its anecdotal style and keen attention to detail, the journal served as a preview of Boswell's later masterpiece, his biography of Johnson.
