'Writing as he does with energy and grace, Kernan is a thoughtful guide to the world Johnson lived in and helped to make...What is best about Kernan's book is that it is up to date but not voguish; he has assimilated new scholarship but not been overpowered by it.' - W.B. Carnochan, The Times Literary Supplement
Kernan discusses the ways in which printing technology changed our attitudes toward literature and its power through an in-depth look at Samuel Johnson.

reviewed Samuel Johnson and the Impact of Print: (Originally published as Printing Technology, Letters, and Samuel Johnson) on January 11, 2015 Samuel Johnson and the Impact of Print: (Originally published as Printing Technology, Letters, and Samuel Johnson)
I started reading this book believing it would be a stock standard autobiography. Well, it wasn't. And Joseph Conrad himself tells you that it wouldn't be so. However, what you do get is memories of people and periods in Conrad's life that shaped and developed the man. This doesn't tell the man's life story but it does tell the story of his life. I was grateful also for the stories of Conrad's uncle as well and of the genesis of his first novel, Almeyer's Folly. This book is a must for Joseph Conrad aficionados like me.
