Peter Ackroyd's method is to position Shakespeare in the close context of his world. In this way, he not only conjures up the texture of Shakespeare's life, but also imparts an amount of vivid, interesting material about place, period and background.

The book displays rare, & in many instances, unique manuscripts, prints, patingins, sculptures, costumes, scene designs, playbills, films, & other memorabilia illustrating the various aspects of Shakespeare's career & impact.
