This early work on Master Skylark-A story of Shakespere's Time is both expensive and hard to find in its first edition. This is a fascinating novel of the period and still an interesting read today. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

The author dedicates the book this way:
"All that Nicholas Attwood's was to him, and more, my own mother has been to me. And to her here I inscribe this book with a never failing love."
Isn't that sweet? It sets the whole tone for the book.
An adventure tale set in Shakespeare's time, it was a great and detailed story of life in that time. I love the descriptions and the characters are interesting and compelling. One think I appreciated was that the author didn't see fit to make the characters speak in Elizabethan English :) I loved the descriptions of Shakespeare and others.
And I freely admit to shedding some tears at the end. ( )
