Delve into the intimate world of 17th-century England with the first volume of "Diary and Correspondence of Samuel Pepys, Esq., F. R. S." This meticulously transcribed and annotated edition offers a rare glimpse into the life and times of Samuel Pepys, a prominent naval administrator and Member of Parliament during the Restoration period.
Originally written in cipher, Pepys' diary provides a frank and detailed account of his personal life, professional endeavors, and observations of the political and social landscape of his era. This volume, expertly deciphered by Rev. Mynors Bright with life and notes by Richard Lord Braybrooke, captures Pepys' candid reflections on everything from the Great Plague and the Great Fire of London to the intrigues of the royal court.
A vital resource for historians and a captivating read for anyone interested in the daily life of a man who lived through some of England's most transformative years, this edition brings Pepys' insightful and often humorous chronicle to life.
