Excerpt from A Brief History of the English Drama From the Earliest to the Latest Times The treatment of a subject of such extent and importance as the one I have chosen, is beset with many and peculiar difficulties. These, during several years' careful study, I have endeavored to overcome. How successful I have been, must be left for my readers to decide. My object has been to give as concise an historical and literary account of the drama, its origin, development and present status as may be embraced in a brief course of lectures. I have necessarily consulted many works of reference and taken copious notes. I am also indebted for suggestions to Dr. A. V. W. Jackson, of Columbia College, and Professor O. B. Clark, of Indiana University. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
