Description
Shakespeare's Notebook is a biography with a difference, providing a full account of William Shakespeare's life and legacy presented in a richly illustrated journal-style format ... as if you are peeking into the Bard's own notebook.

Includes the places Shakespeare knew - from his childhood in Stratford-upon-Avon to the Globe Theatre in London - alongside quotes and anecdotes to bring Shakespeare to life more vividly than any standard biography.
