Synopsis: |
Born of humble beginnings to a London tailor, Samuel Pepys (pronounced "peeps"), rose to political and social prominence in the mid-to late-1600s as a member of Parliament and the trusted confidant of Charles II. Pepys' unabashed curiosity of the Restoration period and his commitment to recording his innermost thoughts allows readers to experience firsthand accounts of the Great Plague, what it was like to see the exhumed and decapitated head of Cromwell on display at Westminster Hall and even the salacious details of Pepys' romantic affairs. Unabridged republication of Passages from the Diary of Samuel Pepys, originally published by Boni and Liveright, New York, 1921. |
