From School Library Journal:
Gr 10 Up-A useful research tool, this collection of 17 critical essays, each by a recognized scholar, is divided into four chapters that group the essays by subject: the histories in general, the Richard plays, the Henry plays, and the lesser-known plays. A 15-page biography of Shakespeare precedes the body of the text, and an annotated table of contents summarizes each selection. The addenda include chronologies of the playwright's life and works, a useful index, and a list for further research that is enhanced by contact information for Shakespearean organizations. The concise appendix, detailing the dates and family alliances of the monarchs covered in the history plays, followed by three clarifying genealogies, is worth the price of the book. The scholarly language in many of the excerpts will limit their use to the most persistent students.-Sally Margolis, Barton Public Library, VT
