William Shakespeare is unquestionably the greatest dramatist of the past millennium, yet many people fear trying to read one of his plays because of lines such as “To see it tetchy and fall out wi’ th’ dug.” Who except a scholar can readily read language like this? But now, in this book, students and general readers can read Shakespeare freely, without pain, without (on most pages) footnotes. The verse remains iambic pentameter, the language remains 90% Shakespeare’s; only enough words have been changed to carry the meaning to today’s reader. Finally students can see for themselves the plots, the characters, the ideas, and even (in almost every case) the language that has made Shakespeare the most important playwright in the history of English.

"Gentle Rain" is the haunting story of two Civil War soldiers—one a wounded Confederate sergeant, the other a young Yankee privateùforced to share a barn after surviving the bloodiest single day of combat in American history…the Battle of Antietam (Sharpsburg). After indulging their hatred and trying to kill one another, they settle down to a tentative truce which ends up exposing their mutually-wounded souls. A surprise revelation leads to compassion, redemption, and even love. This play will make the reader stop and think about how we treat each other, in peace as well as in war, and offers hope that the pain we inflict can always be mended.

Few are aware that the true identity of William Shakespeare represents Western Civilization’s greatest mystery. Even fewer realize that the commonly accepted authorship by the illiterate William Shaksper of Stratford is a complete hoax manufactured by England’s most powerful politicians. This deception survived largely unscathed until 1920 when J. Thomas Looney’s brilliant book, "Shakespeare" Identified, plucked Edward de Vere out of historical obscurity and introduced him to the world as the real Shakespeare. Compiled of authoritative essays and compelling book excerpts, the third volume in this groundbreaking series, Shine Forth salvages fascinating, neglected authorship material which repeatedly and convincingly shows that Edward de Vere was the uniquely creative genius who wrote under the coerced pen name of William Shakespeare. Combating the astonishing power of conventional wisdom, de Vereans have steadily built their case through solid research published in journals and books which have been subject to disappearance by the vicissitudes of time—until now. With an impressive bibliography, well-documented sources, and an unshakeable desire to unearth the truth, this volume represents an historic achievement in the scholarship of Shakespearean studies, and reopens the dialogue on this controversial subject.

WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE MEETS ROBIN HOOD! At last the classic tale of Robin Hood gets the telling it deserves: in the high Shakespearean style of Elizabethan drama. Here is England's greatest legend as England's greatest poet might have imagined it. The critics were convinced at the play's Chicago premiere: "Pursuing persuasive parallels, the author forges links between plucky Robin and rowdy Prince Hal, between rotund Friar Tuck and rascally Falstaff, between intrepid Rosalind and a resourceful Maid Marian" (Chicago Tribune). "Robyn Hood keeps you on your mental toes to follow the intricacies and delights of a Shakespearean script you've never heard before-an almost unimaginable experience for Bardophiles" (Plays International). After 400 years, the play that was meant to be has finally arrived. It's Shakespeare's style and Robin Hood's story together at last!

Is William Shakespeare of Stratford-Upon-Avon the true author of the poems and plays attributed to him? This book once and for all silences those critics who say he isn't. It takes particular aim at those who champion Edward de Vere, the 17th Earl of Oxford, whose crest was a wild blue boar. Who are these heretics who would strip Shakespeare of his laurels and drape them on a "nobler" brow? Foremost are John Thomas Looney, the Charlton Ogburn family and the latter-day anti-Stratfordians Richard Whalen, John Michell, David McCullough, Lewis H. Lapham, Mark Anderson and others. Using their own words against them, this book meticulously examines the claims of these Naysayers and destroys them. In addition, you'll learn about Shakespeare's early decline and fall as a literary giant; why so little is known of Shakespeare's life; and why his closest colleagues, Ben Jonson and the Shakespeare Folio editors, Heminges and Condell, have been branded fools or liars. Whether you are a teacher, student or simply someone interested in one of the foremost literary questions of the day, it's important to read Spearing the Wild Blue Boar.
