Samuel Johnson by Andrew Billen
Sam Johnson spent nine long years writing the first important dictionary of the English Language. But it isn't for his writing that Sam is remembered. What keeps Sam's memory alive are the clever things he said. Words which are still funny and true centuries later. Ages 10+.
Andrew Billen is a feature writer on, and currently television critic of, The Times. He has worked on The Observer, the Standard and the New Statesman. His previous books include Sam Johnson, The Wonderful Word Doctor also for Short Books. He lives in Oxford, with his wife and young daughter.
