A window onto a sunken London, opened anew. Step into the diary of Samuel Pepys for October 1665, and walk the city as it confronts plague, fire, and fleet movements with unflinching immediacy. This volume isn't merely a transcription; it is a carefully restored encounter with a living city. Pepys's daily life in london, his worries over the plague and public health, and his observations on naval and governance events create a vivid, multi¿layered portrait of Restoration London. As a primary source, it offers a precise, human vantage on events that shaped a nation: the rhythms of work and scandal, the pressures of leadership, and the intimate particulars of everyday survival. For historians, students and researchers, it is indispensable; for lovers of literature, it is revelation-clear, intimate, and strangely contemporary in its candour. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, this edition has been restored for today's and future generations. It is more than a reprint-a collector's item and a cultural treasure. Whether you read for scholarly insight or for the sheer pull of a master diarist's eye, this volume widens our sense of what a diary can do: it documents, it reverberates, and it endures as a vibrant record of 1665 London, a cornerstone in the archive of early modern british diaries.
