Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Shakespeare´s Heroines on the Stage In so far as it is a literary sin to attempt the writing of any bit of history in a brief and anecdotical vein, I cry Peccavi. But what would you? To obtain simply the foundation for this book required patience-trying researches among dust-covered shelves where rested antique play-bills and moth-eaten records. To produce the much desired, but as yet unexisting, "Complete History of Shakespeare on the Stage," would necessitate the patience of Job and the age of Methuselah. I have not the one, nor can I reasonably expect the other. And even if I had both gifts, I should not ask my friends, the gentle readers, to emulate the man of sorrows in mentally struggling through such a ponderous work. For their sakes I have made this book as short as I could; I hope none will wish it were shorter. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
