12. Hamlet, a Guide by Alistair McCallum (2001, 122 pages, read Feb 25 – Mar 12)

Very simple stuff. It was good enough for my reading companion to the play. McCallum summarizes each act, highlights the important lines and adds trivia, usually in the form various quotes about Hamlet & Shakespeare through time.

One I really liked, when exploring what characters Shakespeare may himself have acted:

" tho' I have inquir'd, I could never meet with any further Account of him this way, than that the top of his Performance was the Ghost in his own Hamlet.”

Nicholas Rowe, Introduction to Works of Shakespeare, 1709
