Leather. Condizione: Very Good Indeed. First edition. The first printed edition of this famous diary, and therefore contemporaneous account of the fire of London. Edited by Lord Braybrooke using John Smith's transcription of the original diary. Illustrated, with a frontispiece of Pepys and a further seven plates to volume I. With a frontispiece and four plates to volume II. With the half-titles to both volumes. With the bookplate of Sir John Smith, Bart, to the front pastedown. This is the first published edition of Pepys' diary in full. Lord Braybrooke, Richard Griffin, is the editor of this edition. He was a British Whig politician who wrote several historical works and was president of the Camden Society for several years. He used John Smith's transcription of the diary for this publication. John Smith was the first person to decipher the diary in its entirety. Previously small sections had been deciphered. It transpired that Pepys' original diaries were written in a shorthand system devised by Thomas Skelton. Smith's transcription is held in the Pepys library. Pepys' diary enabled historians to understand more about 17th century London. He wrote extensively on personal finances, weather and food. In addition to day-to-day activities the diary provides a commentary on significant events during his lifetime. These include the Restoration of the British Monarchy, the Anglo-Dutch war, The Great Plague and the Great Fire of London. Collated, complete. In a half calf binding with marbled paper covered boards. Rebacked, in the style of the original spines, with the original boards preserved. Externally, very smart with just some patches of minor rubbing to the paper covered boards. Bookplate to the front pastedown of both volumes, Sir John Smith. Internally, both volumes are firmly bound. Pages are bright with minor offsetting and scattered spots, heavier to the first and last few pages. Offsetting from the plates, which have light spots as is usual. Very Good Indeed. Not Stated (illustratore). book.…

Full leather. Condizione: Very Good +. First Edition. A handsome 1st edition of Samuel Pepys' famous diary, which remains one of the great sources for the study of Restoration England. Complete in 2 thick quarto volumes, with 12 engraved plates, including a folding map. Bound in a gilt-edged full leather (dark-brown calf), with ornate gilt-titling and tooling at the compartments. Boards lightly rubbed at edges and corners, very light foxing --and just a bit of offsetting opposite the plates-- thruout the text. Both volumes tight, well-preserved and solidly VG+. This seminal diary, which Pepys wrote from 1660 to 1669, presents a fascinating picture of the official and upper-class life in Restoration London, with vivid, honest accounts of ordinary as well as great events, including the Plague and the Great Fire of London. The diary went unprinted for more than 150 years after its original composition because of its coded shorthand. For 3 years, the Rev. John Smith painstakingly deciphered the diary, all the while unaware that Pepys had taken his code from Thomas Shelton's "Tutor to Tachygraphy" (1642), which sat only a few shelves above the diary in Pepys' library. "It is a document of extraordinary interest, on account both of the light that its sincere narrative throws on the author's own lovable character, and of the vivid picture that it gives of everyday contemporary life, of the administration of the navy, and of the ways of the court".
