Contested Will: Who Wrote Shakespeare? by James Shapiro

5.0

---

An excellent study of the "authorship controversy," as it's often called. Who wrote the works of William Shakespeare? Shapiro quite rightly believes William Shakespeare wrote the works attributed to him, but he tells a fascinating history of the many people (some of them quite famous) who have doubted the "man from Stratford" over the past couple centuries. Excellent work.
