Examines the arguments, for and against, of Shakespeare having been the true author of his plays. No inscriptions. Wrapper is price-clipped.

Professor Shapiro turns his attention to the authorship of Shakespeare. For 200 years after the Bard's death, no one had questioned whether someone else had in fact written the famous plays. Since then dozens of rivals have been posited as potential candidates. Shapiro retraces the source of the controversy and weaves his way through a fascinating path of false claimants, deception, and fabricated documents. He arrives at a key question: are the works autobiographical, and if so, do they hold the key to who actually wrote them?
