Originally published in 1938, this book presents the diary of John Milward (1599–1670), Member of Parliament for Derbyshire from 1665 to 1670. Covering the period September 1666 to May 1668, the diary is reproduced as close to its manuscript form as possible, with a few changes made in order to render spelling consistent. A bibliography, appendices and detailed editorial introduction are also incorporated. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in British political history and parliamentary diaries.
