BOSWELL THE BIOGRAPHER

BOSWELL THE BIOGRAPHER

GEORGE MALLORY

With a Portrait by George Dance, R.A.

London Smith, Elder & Co., 15 Waterloo Place 1912

A list of the books to which I have referred is printed at the beginning of this volume. I am naturally indebted to the researches of Dr. G. Birkbeck Hill, to the three biographers of Boswell--Dr. Rogers , Mr. Percy Fitzgerald, and Mr. W. K. Leask--and to the brilliant study by Carlyle. I must also mention three essays which have been particularly illuminating--that by W. E. Henley in 'Views and Reviews,' by Lionel Johnson in 'Post Liminium,' and by Mr. Birrell in his edition of Boswell's 'Life of Johnson.'

I am grateful especially to Mr. A. C. Benson, whose encouragement promoted this enterprise, to Mr. G. L. Strachey for many valuable suggestions, and to Mr. E. H. Marsh for correcting my proofs, which was no mean labour.

GEORGE MALLORY.
