Diary of Samuel Pepys — Volume 63: March 1667-68
Produced by David Widger
"Diary of Samuel Pepys — Volume 63: March 1667-68" by Samuel Pepys is an unabridged historical diary written during the 17th century, specifically in the period of the Restoration in England. This work provides a detailed account of Pepys's daily life, the political and social events of his time, and his own personal reflections, making it a remarkable document for understanding life in post-Cromwell England. The primary topic revolves around the workings of the British Navy and government during a time of political intrigue and social change. In this volume, Pepys details his experiences and challenges as Clerk of the Acts and Secretary to the Admiralty. His entries reflect deep concerns over parliamentary proceedings, especially regarding the Navy's readiness and the political maneuvers against him and his colleagues. He encounters various figures of importance, discusses the difficulties in acquiring funds for naval operations, and navigates complex personal relationships. Through his candid observations, readers witness the weight of responsibility Pepys felt in managing public affairs while also contending with his private life and social gatherings, offering a vibrant portrait of a pivotal era in British history.
