Editorial Reviews

Pepys (1633-1703) was clerk of the English Navy Board during the Second Dutch War, 1665-67, and his previously unpublished journals for the period 1664 to 1672 provide one of the fullest accounts of the war. In addition to his journal are here presented documents relating to the Brooke House Commission, established in 1667 to scrutinize the Navy Board's management of the war finances, including Pepys' defense of the board and his own actions. Well cross-referenced and annotated. Includes a glossary without pronunciation. Distributed in the US by Ashgate. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
