Bill on Will
In exploring what is known about Shakespeare, Bryson brings Elizabethan and Jacobean England to life, debunking the flights of fancy that litter the field of Shakespeare study along the way. Well researched but not an academic challenge, it's readable, short, and full of fascinating insights. Bryson's writing style is economical and peppered with his characteristic wit. Very enjoyable!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Bryson at his best— as usual.
This writer has discovered the very little we know about Shakespeare and puts those facts into the times in which he lived . More of a very animated history than just a biography.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
