Pepys never resumed the personal Diary which he abandoned in 1669 when he feared that he was going blind. But he did write several short diaries or journals at various key moments in his later life. Now available to the general reader, these documents enlarge and enhance our picture of Pepys as a politician and civil servant.
C.S. KNIGHTON has edited the Calendar of State Papers Domestic volumes for the reigns of Edward VI and Mary I for the Public Records Office. He also compiled the Catalogue of Modern Manuscripts in the Pepys Library at Magdalene College, Oxford.
