Synopsis
Richard Le Gallienne s elegant abridgment of the Diary captures the essential writings of Samuel Pepys (1633 1703), a remarkable man who witnessed the coronation of Charles II, the Great Plague of 1665, and the Great Fire of 1666. Originally scribbled in a cryptic shorthand, Pepys s quotidian journal of life in Restoration London provides an astonishingly frank and diverting account of political intrigues; naval, church, and cultural affairs; and the sexual escapades and domestic strife of a man with a voracious, childlike appetite for living. --Since 1917 The Modern Library prides itself as ''The modern Library of the world s Best Books''. Featuring introductions by leading writers, stunning translations, scholarly endnotes and reading group guides. Production values emphasize superior quality and readability.
