Originally published in the 1930s. The book is intended as an introduction for the younger reader to the study of Shakespeare. Eighteen famous tales have been partly rewritten to facilitate this. Illustrations are by Arthur Rackham. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Home Farm Books are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.Keywords: Arthur Rackham Farm Books 1900s 1930s Illustrations Shakespeare Artwork
