How it works

Register

This companion volume (Vol X of the Folio Society edition of Pepys's diary) stands on its own and presents the essence of Pepys without the detailed diary entries and notes. The presentation is alphabetical nearly fifty main articles, contributed by 12 authorities, in their alphabetical positions:

  • the Admiralty
  • Art and Architecture
  • Books
  • the Chatham Chest
  • Christenings
  • Christmas and Twelfth Night
  • Coffee Houses
  • the Diary and Related Manuscripts

plus 41 others

Quarter brown cloth with marbled paper sides, all edges gilt, red ribbon book-mark, plain endpapers, xv + 626 pp of text on heavy wove paper with maps and plans in the text + genealogy and map plates + colour frontispiece.

This volume of the Folio Society's reliably sumptuous production, coupled with authoritive texts, remains almost as new - complete, unmarked and undiscoloured.
