Including the historical journals of Samuel Pepys and Anne Frank; snapshots of culture in the diaries of Frida Kahlo and Kurt Cobain; and windows into the past from Queen Victoria and John Adams. These published journals present a unique insight into their time and place, featuring a diverse range of accounts from all over the world. Discover the doomed log of Arctic explorer Robert Falcon Scott and the philandering antics of Samuel Pepys: as well as the less well-known diary of Jakob Walter, a foot soldier who gave a vivid insight into the Napoleonic wars, or Mary Chesnut,a privileged planter's wife in South Carolina, who chronicled the South's decline in the Civil War. 0aDiaristsvAnecdotes. 0aDiariesxHistory and criticism. 0aDiaristsvBiography.  0aWorld history. 0aDiaries.  aBiographies.
