About the authors
James Boswell
1740–1795
Best known for turning a friendship into one of the most famous biographies in English, this lively Scottish writer recorded conversations, travels, and private struggles with unusual honesty. His journals and memoirs still feel vivid because they catch people as they really sounded and behaved.

Hester Lynch Piozzi
1741–1821
Known for her lively diaries, letters, and travel writing, she moved at the center of 18th-century literary life and left a vivid record of the people and conversations around her. Her work still feels fresh because it is sharp, curious, and full of personality.
