Offering the texts of letter between Boswell and 123
correspondents, this volume covers Boswell through the early stages
of his legal career in Edinburgh and closes shortly after the time
of his marriage to his penniless Ayrshire cousin, Margaret
Montgomerie. Among various topics, the volume traces the aftermath
of Boswell's vigorous partisan legal and journalistic involvement
with the Douglas Cause, the beginnings of his patronage of an
obscure struggling playwright and poet, William Julius Mickle, and
the publication and reception of his successful Account of Corsica
and his efforts to rouse British interest in the Corsican cause.
