Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. 1666 was a watershed year for England. The outbreak of the Great Plague, the eruption of the second Dutch War and the Great Fire of London all struck the country in rapid succession and with devastating repercussions.Shedding light on these dramatic events, historian Rebecca Rideal reveals an un…precedented period of terror and triumph. Based on original archival research and drawing on little-known sources, 1666: Plague, War and Hellfire takes readers on a thrilling journey through a crucial turning point in English history, as seen through the eyes of an extraordinary cast of historical characters. While the central events of this significant year were ones of devastation and defeat, 1666 also offers a glimpse of the incredible scientific and artistic progress being made at that time, from Isaac Newton's discovery of gravity to Robert Hooke's microscopic wonders. It was in this year that John Milton completed Paradise Lost, Frances Stewart posed for the now-iconic image of Britannia, and a young architect named Christopher Wren proposed a plan for a new London - a stone phoenix to rise from the charred ashes of the old city.With flair and style, 1666 shows a city and a country on the cusp of modernity, and a series of events that forever altered the course of history. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Rebecca Rideal's 1666: Plague, War and Hellfire is a vivid, immersive chronicle of one of the most catastrophic years in English history—a year that saw London ravaged by plague, war, and fire, yet also stirred the embers of scientific and cultural transformation. London and England during the Restoration, specifically the years 1665-1666. The Great Plague of 1665, which killed around 100,000 Londoners from a population of 460,000. The Second Anglo-Dutch War, including naval battles and political tensions. The Great Fire of London in September 1666, which destroyed much of the medieval city. Rideal explores how society responded to overlapping crises, from quarantine measures to royal leadership during the fire. Historical Texture: The book blends high politics with street-level detail, drawing on parish records, diaries, and eyewitness accounts to animate the city's inhabitants—from monarchs and scientists to booksellers and spies.
