For the Shakespear Enthusiast (or those doing a report)

Irwin Smith has taken a lot of time and research to present to us the great details of the Globe that many people do not know about. This book was very handy doing an english thesis on how plays would have been preformed on stage. If you are even remotly interested in Shakespear. I would definatly recomend the book. All of the to scale drawings of the playhouse really help to bring it to life.
