Thames & Hudson, 2016. Hardcover. A very good used copy in a very good dust jacket. Samuel Pepys (1633-1703) lived through one of the most exciting and troubled periods in English history. He saw the people rise up in the name of liberty and execute their king. During the plague of 1665 he endured months of terror, and the following year he witnessed the Great Fire of London.
