The Diary of Samuel Pepys by Samuel Pepys

The Diary of Samuel Pepys by Samuel Pepys

The sixth volume of the complete Diary of Samuel Pepys in its most authoritative and acclaimed edition.

‘The Latham-Matthews transcription of Pepys’ Diary is one of the glories of contemporary English publishing’
The Times

‘The pleasure of Pepys – of reading him – is his own pleasure in experience… Pepys’ diary is the cheerful self-report, not of the man eminent in naval history, not of the historical witness, but of the unobjectionable hedonist.’
Guardian

‘Here, in one of the finest feats in all the long history of scholarship, is Pepys’ Diary, once and for all. Exegi monumentum aere perennius.’
Observer

‘The editors have achieved the impossible… one can now read the Diary perfectly easily, month by month, year by year… here at last is a really learned edtiion where the learning is put at the disposal of the layman.’
New Statesman

‘It isn’t often that one encounters a publication – especially of this magnitude – which achieves complete perfection, but there is no doubt that this does.’
Sir Arthur Bryant
