5.0 out of 5 stars
Good literature, good bindings, good commentary, March 25, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Histories: Volume 1 (Everyman's Library) (Hardcover)
We all know about Shakespeare, so a review of his writing is not required. However, I would like to say that the Everyman's Library series are worth getting. Unlike omnibus editions (such as the Riverside Shakespeare), these are actually portable so you don't need a table to hold them up while you are reading. The Everyman's Library series have good hardbindings, are conveniently sized to carry around, and have illuminating and extensive introductions. The typeface used is old, but the letters are large and easily readable (something that is a concern with some other editions).
Histories, Volume 1 contains: Henry VI, Part One; Henry VI, Part Two; Henry VI, Part Three; Richard III; King John
Histories, Volume 2 contains: Richard II; Henry IV, Part One; Henry IV, Part Two; Henry V; Henry VII
