The celebrated Renaissance chronicler Raphael Holinshed produced a comprehensive history of the British Isles in collaboration with several others. The 'Chronicles' was compiled uncritically from many sources of varying degrees of trustworthiness. It provided a valuable repertory of historical information that was not readily available to the majority of Tudor readers. The Elizabethan dramatists drew heavily from Holinshed's pages, which in turn helped change the course of English literature. This eBook presents Holinshed's complete works, with numerous illustrations, rare texts, a concise introduction and the usual Delphi bonus material. (Version 1)
* Beautifully illustrated with images relating to Holinshed's life and works * Concise introduction to the text * All of the Chronicles, based on Sir Henry Ellis' 1807 text * Excellent formatting of the texts * Easily locate the chapters you want to read with contents tables * Features a bonus biography * A special hyperlinked 'Glossary of Elizabethan Language' to aid your studies * Ordering of texts into genres
