About This Item
Stated first edition. No dust jacket. A biography of Shakespeare the man rather than the legend. Tries to portray the playwrite and he was seen by his fellow Londoners. Little wear to the book. Red fabric covered boards with embossed image on the front and gilt print on the spine. The fabric is faded over the spine and there is a small impact mark on the lower right rear corner. The deckle-edged pages are clean, tight and gently yellowed (mellowed?).

Many of my books are oversized. Rather than ask for shipping adjustments at the time of purchase, the list price for heavier books includes the excess shipping cost. All of my photographs are of the actual product, taken by my trusty little Kindle Fire. Currently we have about 2900 books offered for sale online, with more being added daily. Check back frequently to see what's new. -----
