About the author
Born in London on February 23, 1633, Samuel Pepys became a civil servant, Member of Parliament, and senior official in the English Navy Board. Although he had no maritime experience, his administrative talent and political connections helped him rise to become Chief Secretary to the Admiralty under Charles II and James II.
Pepys is best remembered for the private diary he kept from 1660 to 1669. Written in shorthand and published after his death, it offers an unusually detailed account of everyday life and major events during the Stuart Restoration, including the Great Plague of London, the Second Anglo-Dutch War, and the Great Fire of London. He died on May 26, 1703.
