Samuel Pepys was an English diarist and naval administrator whose private diary that Pepys kept from 1660 until 1669 (yet first published in the 19th century) is one of the most important primary sources for the English Restoration period. Besides personal revelations like court intrigue, gossip, living conditions, weather, diet, counterfeiting, public hangings, it also contains eyewitness accounts of great events, such as the Great Plague of London, the Second Dutch War, and the Great Fire of London.

The 1660s represent a turning point in English history, and for the main events - the Restoration, the Dutch War, the Great Plague, the Fire of London - Pepys provides a definitive eyewitness account. Along with lively descriptions of his socializing, his amorous entanglements, his theater-going & music-making. Unequaled for its frankness, high spirits & sharp observations, the diary is both a literary masterpiece & a marvelous portrait of 17th-century life. Acclaimed by 'The Times' as "one of the glories of contemporary English publishing" and by Sir Arthur Bryant as "complete perfection", the Latham and Matthews edition remains the authoritative text and provides the source for this magnificent Folio Society publication.
