v. 1 ; 22 cm. v.1. Nov. 19, 1740-April 16, 1741.--v. 2. Dec. 1,1741-Feb. 23, 1743 By Samuel Johnson Edited by J. Stockdale Originally these "Debates" were written by William Guthrie and edited by Johnson for the Gentleman's magazine in 1738, and were given fictitious names as "Debates in the Senate of Lilliputs." Johnson was never at the gallery himself, but had assistance from persons employed: some were the mere coinage of his imagination.--cf Dictionary of national biography, v. 10, p. 922 Great Britain.
