| Summary: | "A new biography of one of the most popular and interesting figures in English history is long overdue. Pepys was a highly energetic man, closely involved in his strenuous and exciting times. Here is a combination of public events and private passions, but above all this is a story of warmth and achievement, of affections and sadnesses, and of great things done by a man from no very special background who had to make his own way in the world." "Pepys is one of the first professionals we can know intimately, and acclaimed biographer Stephen Coote carefully charts the enormous range of talent Pepys brought to his work for the Navy, in both peace and war. In so doing he provides a fascinating insight into the emerging civil service. He also shows how great national events impinged on Pepys; the Plague; the Fire of London; the Dutch Wars; the brief but fateful reign of James II and the Glorious Revolution." "Samuel Pepys also explores the private man. We see Pepys's relationship with the wife he married when she was a mere fifteen years old - the silly, exasperating, bullayable, loving and beloved Elizabeth. Because of his incomparable Diary, Pepys's is one of the very few marriages where we can peer behind the bedroom door to hear the bickering and glimpse the intimacy. Pepys was also notoriously (and graphically) unfaithful."--BOOK JACKET. |
