Légende
'Samuel Pepys', (c1878). Pepys (1633-1703) was a naval administrator and Member of Parliament. His private diaries, first published in the 19th century, are an important source of information of the period 1660-1669. The diaries provide Pepys' eyewitness accounts of the Great Plague of London, the Second Dutch War, and the Great Fire of 1666, as well as details of his private life such as his operation to remove bladder stones - a painful and risky procedure at the time. From Old and New London: A Narrative of Its History, Its People, And Its Places. The Southern Suburbs, Volume VI, by Edward Walford. [Cassell, Petter, Galpin & Co., London, Paris & New York, c1878]
