Description

Excerpt from The Shakespeare Apocrypha: Being a Collection of Fourteen Plays Which Have Been Ascribed to Shakespeare; Edited, With Introduction, Notes and Bibliography Like so many students of Elizabethan literature, I have to acknowledge a large debt of gratitude to Mr. P. A. Daniel. My obligations to him for textual comments and conjectures, particularly relating to The Merry Devil of Edmonton and The Two Noble Kinsmen, will, I hope, be sufficiently evident from the notes to those plays but for a great deal of other trouble willingly undertaken on my behalf I have only this opportunity of rendering my sincere thanks. I am equally indebted to Dr. Furnivall for unfailing interest and sympathy as well as for a number of valuable suggestions for mys Introduction and I gladly take this occasion of expressing also my recognition of Dr. W. Aldis Wright's courtesy to me while reading in the Library of Trinity College, Cambridge, and since. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
