Book synopsis

Excerpt from Tales From Shakespeare, Vol. 1 of 2 Nothing could better testify to the perennial charm of Charles and Mary Lamb's Tales from Shakspeare than the fact that during the eighty-six years between the issue of the first edition in 1807 and the present time there have been put forth more than fifty editions, and that each year brings a new contribution to the store. In their sincere and simple preface the brother and sister, now grown so famous, said that their chief aim was to provide an introduction to the study of Shakspeare for the young reader; but this purpose was carried out by them with such delicate art and critical insight that the group of plays intended for children have become the treasured resource of students, as well as an elevated pleasure for readers to whom books are an enjoyment pure and simple.
