Written between 1660 and 1669, Pepys' diary captures the great public dramas of the age — the Restoration of King Charles II, the Great Plague, and the catastrophic Great Fire of London — alongside the minutiae of daily domestic life, rendered with an honesty that no other diarist of his era could match.\n\nThis eleventh and final volume presents the comprehensive index to the complete edition, meticulously compiled by Robert Latham, making it an indispensable scholarly tool for navigating the entire monumental work. The new and complete transcription, edited by Latham and William Matthews, is widely regarded as the definitive modern edition, restoring passages previously suppressed and presenting Pepys' original shorthand with academic rigour. For historians, literary scholars, and devoted readers alike, this index volume unlocks the full richness of a diary that remains, centuries on, one of history's most compulsively readable primary sources — leaving one to wonder what further secrets of Restoration England still await discovery within its pages.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49131001577691,"sku":"2026200012774-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/d42ad941-8087-403e-a9c1-edb6331d30dc.png?v=1786594274","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200012774-secondhand-the-diary-of-samuel-pepys-volume-xi-index","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
