Pepys was one of the best diarists ever
21. Juni 2011
Format:Kindle Edition|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
This is the complete version of Pepys Diary, and you will encounter many days and time frames when he might just as well have said "nothing happened". However, you will also find such things as an eyewitness account of the Great Fire of London of 1666, and much discussion of Pepys personal life, with some intimate details. One thing to like about diaries is, that while they may be in one way or another biased about a particular subject (political, religious, whatever), they are honest accounts, first hand, and not speculation by someone writing decades or even centuries after the fact. There is no influence by modern self censoring or political correctness. You may choose not to read all of this, there is a lot of material here, but even reading excerpts will probably give a glimpse into 17th century life in Britain.

"Complete...except for the parts that were removed"
26. August 2011
Format:Kindle Edition|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
This is pretty good for a free download but it, like seemingly any public-domain version of Pepys is not "complete." It's actually funny how the preface starts with several paragraphs about how no complete version of Pepys' diary had ever been published until this one..."with the exception of a few passages which cannot possibly be printed." The censorship starts only a couple of sentences into Pepys' very first entry!
Still, it's pretty good for costing nothing. Just don't get your hopes up for a complete version.

Preferably Pepys
1. November 2011
Format:Kindle Edition
I'm a history buff, especially fond of old books and photos. This authentically qualifies as an old book. It's not something that one would want to read from cover to cover on a daily basis; it can be boring and predictable. But, despite the mundane, Mr. Pepys narrates an authentic and intriguing account of his life in 17th century London. Download it for free and peruse it at will. It's a bodacious bargain for history hounds.

I went to Mr. Crew's and thence to the Theatre, where I saw again "The Lost Lady," which do now please me better than before; and here I sitting behind in a dark place, a lady spit backward upon me by a mistake, not seeing me, but after seeing her to be a very pretty lady, I was not troubled at it at all.

A very eloquent sermon about the duty of all to give good example in our lives and conversation, which I fear he himself was most guilty of not doing.
