Samuel Pepys Tour Around Bristol

Season: 5 Episode: 44

Samuel Pepys was a prominent English diarist and naval administrator, renowned for his detailed and vivid Diary, which spans from January 1, 1660, to May 31, 1669. Pepys provides an invaluable account of Restoration London, covering its society, politics, and significant events such as the Great Plague and the Great Fire of London. His work offers a rich perspective on the lives of the upper class and the inner workings of the English Navy during this period. The diary was first published in 1825, securing Pepys a lasting legacy in English literature and history.
