Produced by David Widger
"Diary of Samuel Pepys — Volume 03: February 1659-1660" by Samuel Pepys is a historical account written in the 17th century, specifically during the early years of the Restoration period in England. This volume continues the detailed and personal narrative of Pepys, who was a prominent naval administrator and member of the British government, chronicling his daily life, professional challenges, and the political turbulence of the time. This diary volume likely focuses on Pepys’s observations of the political environment, personal interactions, and social life amidst changing governance. In this volume, Pepys provides rich details of his routines and various encounters, such as dealings with army officers and his reflections on the civil unrest following the Rump Parliament's struggles. His entries detail interactions with figures like General Monk, who plays a central role in the reinstatement of a new Parliament. Amidst discussions of military pay, legal matters, and social gatherings, Pepys also mentions personal concerns such as health issues and the dynamics within his household. Through his observations, readers get a sense of the societal and political shifts in England during this transformative period, all conveyed through Pepys's candid and engaging prose.
