Book Details
First Sentence
"Many, perhaps most, modern stage productions of The Taming of the Shrew contain brief passages for the character Sly derived from the 1594 quarto The Taming of a Shrew and modern editors of The Shrew now regularly reprint the epilogue from A Shrew along with additional segments for Sly."
