WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE: A Biography

by A. L. Rowse ‧ RELEASE DATE: Jan. 7, 1964

Report repeated from page 809 (J-269) when scheduled for an earlier publication date: ""This can almost be viewed as a literary detective story in which all the clues to Shakespeare's character and his facts of life are found in the lines of the plays, onnets and verse dramas. Some will take issue with Rowse on conclusions that he has rawn and stated as incontrovertible facts, but his arguments are well buttressed and his convictions made plausible. Its immediate market will be found primarily among students, and the book makes an interesting addition to the always in demand biographies of Shakespeare.
