As the subtitle suggests, this edition of the Chronicle is not complete, but sets forth those passages which have a bearing on Shakespeare's work, with some references to the relevant acts and scenes.

An interesting book for the theatre buff, and a necessity for those with more than a passing interest in Shakespeare. A scholar, however, would probably want the complete chronicle in its original ordering.

I bought this book at Stratford-upon-Avon.
