Celebrate 400 years of Shakespeares legacy with this repackage of award-winning author Diane Stanleys tribute to the world-famous playwright William Shakespeare.Nobody knows exactly when or why William Shakespeare left his boyhood home of Stratford-on-Avon for the great city of London, but it didnt take long for him to make a name for himself. His plays are now performed almost every day in just about every part of the world; even people whove never seen them use words and phrases he introduced into the English language.How did a man from an unremarkable family create a legacy that the world, even 400 years after his death, has never forgotten? There will always be unsolved mysteries about Shakespeare, but what we do know of his life, his times, and his theater makes for a very dramatic story.
