The Diary of Samuel Pepys is a historical book written by Lord Braybrooke, which is a compilation of the personal diary entries of Samuel Pepys, a prominent figure in 17th century England. The diary covers a period of ten years, from 1660 to 1669, and provides a detailed account of Pepys' daily life, including his work as a naval administrator, his social interactions, his personal relationships, and his observations on the political and cultural events of the time. The book is divided into several volumes, each covering a specific period of time, and includes Pepys' original spelling and grammar. The diary is widely regarded as an important historical document, providing valuable insights into the life and times of 17th century England, including the Restoration period, the Great Plague of London, and the Great Fire of London. The Diary of Samuel Pepys also includes footnotes and annotations by Lord Braybrooke, which provide additional context and information about the people, places, and events mentioned in the diary. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in English history, and provides a fascinating glimpse into the life of one of England's most influential figures.3rd. Drank my morning draft at Harper's, and was told there that the soldiers were all quiet upon promise of pay. Thence to St. James's Park, back to Whitehall, where in a guard-chamber I saw about thirty or forty 'prentices of the City, who were taken at twelve o'clock last night and brought prisoners hither.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
