About the book

Samuel Pepys's Diary is one of the most remarkable firsthand records of seventeenth-century English life. Written between 1660 and 1669, it combines intimate personal confession with eyewitness accounts of major historical events. Pepys records his career, marriage, friendships, pleasures and weaknesses with extraordinary honesty, while also describing the Restoration court, the Great Plague and the Great Fire of London. This three-volume edition offers a substantial presentation of one of the richest diaries in English literature.
