A diary that reads like a window into a living city, teeth-chattering with plague, flame, and the clamor of court and fleet. A vivid, diary-style narrative that turns daily life into history you can touch. Diary Of Samuel Pepys - Volume 42 gathers Pepys's intimate London in the 1660s, blending sharp observations with the immediacy of a seventeenth century diary. This restored edition preserves his keen eye on daily life, while revealing the pressures of naval and court politics, the hustle of Restoration England, and the human weather behind great events. It's more than a chronicle; it's a living record of how a man and his city navigated peril, power, and performance. A work of substantial literary and historical significance, Pepys's accounts illuminate how a bustling metropolis endured plague and fire, how friends and rivals moved through offices and drawing rooms, and how a society rebuilt itself after upheaval. For history researchers, students and researchers, and lovers of seventeenth century journals, this volume offers a lucid, absorbing entry into a complete diary collection that continues to inform and enchant. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, this volume is restored for today's readers and for future generations. More than a reprint - it is a collector's item and a cultural treasure, a concrete link to london in the 1660s and the enduring human story behind the Restoration era.
