This first complete reprint of Boswell's book on Corsica since the eighteenth century contains both parts of the original text, comprehensive annotation, textual apparatus, and a critical introduction. These contextualize the Corsican issue, underline its significance as a forerunner of the American and French revolutions, and reveal fresh aspects of Boswell the writer.
