"The Bard of Stratford-upon-Avon has been proclaimed the world's greatest author, revered by scholars and laypersons alike, yet more and more people have questioned whether the historical Shakespeare wrote the plays popularly attributed to him.

While other books on the subject have argued that some other particular person wrote the plays, this is the first book in over 80 years to comprehensively revisit the authorship question without an ideological bias, the first to introduce new evidence, and the first to undertake a systematic comparative analysis with other literary biographies.

It successfully argues that "William Shakespeare" was the pen name of an aristocrat, and that William Shakespeare of Stratford-upon-Avon was a shrewd entrepreneur, not a dramatist."--BOOK JACKET.
