| Notes: | A biography of the famous diarist from his youth at Cambridge, through the diary years as Navy Clerk; the second and third Dutch Wars; his imprisonment during the Popish Plot; his reinstatement under James II; the Glorious Revolution; to his retirement and death. Pepys was an opportunist and a politician, but brilliant and likeable. |
