And ?what we know? will probably surprise a great many people ? reassuring them, incidentally, if they have any doubts, that William Shakespeare of Stratford-upon-Avon really was the author of the plays attributed to him. All the photographs of present-day Stratford and the surrounding countryside were especially taken for this book by Edwin Smith.* A NEAR VG++ text copy of the 1st/4th. with some minor faults in a VG protected dust jacket.*
