This was a really fun book making great arguments that Henry Neville, not the bloke from Stratford, wrote the great canon of Shakespeare plays. And what another great irony of history if this proves true. William of Stratford died a litigious landowner and grain hoarder without a care in the world. Henry Neville died a virtual bankrupt despite having served Queen and country loyally (or almost loyally) for his 50 odd years. He was a judge and parliamentarian, an ambassador and occasionally a spy. He spent years in prison and aspired to highest offices of the land. But he made nothing from writing.

Who wrote the works of Shakespeare? Revealing newly discovered evidence, John Casson and William D. Rubinstein definitively answer this question, presenting the case that the man from Stratford simply did not have the education, cultural background and breadth of life experience necessary for him to write the plays traditionally attributed to him.Instead, the most credible candidate is Sir Henry Neville, who certainly did have all the necessary qualifications. A colourful Renaissance man educated at Merton College, Oxford, Neville's life experience precisely matches that revealed in the plays.Casson and Rubinstein take us on a breath-taking journey of discovery through the development of Shakespeare's plays and poetry, compellingly drawing close parallels between the works and events in Neville's life. They reveal how Neville's annotated library books, manuscripts, notebooks and letters show he was the hidden author, who survived dangerous political times by keeping his authorship secret. The book contains a great deal of remarkable new evidence, expertly presented, that will challenge anyone's ideas about who really wrote the Shakespeare plays.
