Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memoirs of Samuel Pepys, Esq. F. R. S, Vol. 1 of 5: Secretary to the Admiralty in the Reigns of Charles II. And James II.; Comprising His Diary From 1659 to 1669, Deciphered by the Rev. John Smith, A. B., From the Original Short-Hand Ms., In the Pepysian Library, and a Selection From His Private Correspond The Memoirs of Samuel Pepys, and the History of his Short-Hand Diary, have been so long well known to the literary world, that the fourth edition of the work, comprised in the following pages, can hardly require any formal or lengthened introduction. It should, however, he explained, that as the edition of 1848, which had found more general favour than its predecessors, was already out of print, Mr. Henry Colburn, the publisher, strongly urged that the book should.be again brought forth under my auspices, and I have ventured to accede to his request. So true is the French couplet: "On revient toujours, A ses premiers amours." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
