Nonfiction: A Journey to the Western Islands of Scotland by Doctor Johnson, who toured Scotland in 1773 from August to November in the company of Scotsman James Boswell, then 32. "That certain kings reigned and certain battles were fought we can depend upon as true," says Doctor Johnson April 11, "but all the coloring, all the philosophy of history is conjecture."
