Seller's Description:
First edition first impression 2002. xiii+279 pages. Illustrated. Cloth. Near fine in dustjacket. Constant Delights looks-from a rather jaunty angle-at one of the most remarkable and fashionable periods in English history. Peopled with names such as Milton, Pepys, Dryden, Halley, Purcell, Bunyan, Wren, Lely and Kneller, the reign of Charles II (1660-85) was a time of innovation, creativity and beauty. It also had more than its fair share of debauchery-gambling, drinking, sex and violence, to be precise. That's where Constant Delights picks up the story.
