About

The story of the group of extraordinary eighteenth-century writers, artists, and thinkers who gathered weekly at a London tavern. In 1763, the painter Joshua Reynolds proposed to his friend Samuel Johnson that they invite a few friends to join them every Friday at the Turk’s Head Tavern in London to dine, drink, and talk until midnight. Eventually the group came to include among its members Edmund Burke, Adam Smith, Edward Gibbon, and James Boswell. It was known simply as “the Club.” This is the story of an extraordinary group of people whose ideas helped to shape their age, and our own.

Includes monochrome and colour fine line drawings.
