Today John Evelyn is known almost exclusively for his Diary, the remarkable record of his life at the centre of English social and political life in the seventeenth century; his other literary works have received scant attention. The Writings of John Evelyn is the first serious attempt to make a selection of his works available for modern scrutiny. It covers as representative a range as possible of Evelyn's books and tracts, from the first edition of his work on arboriculture, Sylva (1664), and his invective on London's pollution, Fumifugium (1661), which has acquired a new relevance, to his memorial to his son Richard, The Golden Book of St John of Chrysostom(1659). Also included are political tracts and his comic account of England under the Commonwealth, A Character of England (1656). The editor has written a full introduction to Evelyn's literary career, and each piece is accompanied by an individual introduction and extensive footnotes. Guy de la Bédoyère gained his Masters Degree from London University.… (más)

This handy volume includes several of the famous diarist’s works, including some early satirical screeds, such as his 1656 Character of England, his anti-pollution tract Fumifugium, and the first edition of his famous work on arboriculture: Sylva, (‘Or, a Discourse of Forest-Trees, and the Propagation of Timber in his Majesties Dominions’). The volume’s editor, Guy de la Bédoyère, provides an introduction and notes.
