A prolific author and founding member of the Royal Society, John Evelyn (16201706) was one of the most remarkable intellectuals in late seventeenthcentury English society. While his diary has long been considered second only to that of Samuel Pepys in importance, until quite recently his papers were inaccessible to scholars.The Letterbooks of John Evelyn, a 2volume collection of more than eight hundred letters selected by Evelyn himself, constitutes an essential new resource for scholars of seventeenthcentury England. The two books in this set give modern readers access to Evelyns correspondence with scientists and scholars such as Robert Boyle and Richard Bentley, political figures including Edward Hyde and Sidney Godolphin, and his friend and fellow diarist Samuel Pepys. They also include Evelyns accounts of major events such as the restoration of the monarchy in 1660, the Glorious Revolution of 1688, and the founding and early history of the Royal Society.Winner of "EwartDaveluy Indexing Award awarded by the Indexing Society of Canada"
