A window onto a city alive with clatter, commerce and confession. A diary that lets you walk the streets of Restoration London as if you were there beside Pepys, jotting notes about a changing world. Diary Of Samuel Pepys - Volume 05 May 1660 offers a vivid, unvarnished portrait of 17th century england society through a masterful historical diary. This restored edition preserves the immediacy of Pepys's daily life, artfully balancing personal moment and public upheaval. It is more than a reprint: it is a period manuscript made accessible to today's readers, inviting academic researchers, history enthusiasts and primary source readers to explore urban daily life in london with fresh heat and clarity. The volume captures a world in transition, where ambition, fear and curiosity mingle in tavern talk, parish duties and the crowded streets. Its enduring significance lies in its intimate testimony-an essential primary source document for scholars and curious minds alike-offering a benchmark for how ordinary lives intersect with the great currents of Restoration and early modern England. Comparisons with Clarendon diaries and related works illuminate how Pepys's perspective complements and challenges broader narratives. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure, suited to classroom teaching, library shelves, and the shelves of discerning readers who seek a vivid, humanised account of 17th century daily life in london.
