Excerpt from Historical Tales From Shakespeare Although in the following pages I have chosen those plays, or most of them, which Charles and Mary Lamb omitted from their Tales from Shake speare, and although I have. Taken a title very like theirs, my attempt has not been to round off or tag a conclusion to their inimitable work. They, as wise judges of what their book should be, found that a certain class of play lay outside their purpose. It is just these plays - the historical ones - which, with a different purpose, are here cast into narrative form.

Excerpt from Historical Tales From Shakespeare (For although even a very young reader may delight in Shakespeare, it takes a grown one and a wise one to understand his full meaning.) And we asked ourselves, 'Is it possible, by throwing the stories into plain narrative form and making the language more ordinary, to represent these vivid pictures so that young readers may be attracted to them - yet reverently, and in the hope that from our pale, if simple, copies they may be led on and attracted to his rich and wonderful work?'

Excerpt from Shakespeare's Stories of the English Kings It is inevitable, in retelling the stories of Shakespeare's English Kings, that we should recall the names of Charles and Mary Lamb. These gifted authors are associated immortally with Shakespeare, and their Tales must remain a classic for youthful readers, to whom a simple prose rendering is of great value as an introduction to the genius of our greatest poet. The Histories, however, were not included in the Tales, hence there is opportunity for an endeavour to provide a prose version of this attractive section of the great plays. Beginning with the period before the Roman invader came to our shores, and passing through the times of Plantagenet and Tudor to the opening days of Elizabeth, Shakespeare has presented in his wonderful series an almost complete view of the great figures of English history, indicating with a sure touch the movements, crises, and turning-points of our national development. The canvas is a crowded one, but there is no superfluous figure, and from the king to the peasant he holds the mirror of genius up to Nature and reflects life. The inner significance has been well indicated by Walter Pater. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Fairy Tales From Shakespeare A long, long time ago, when Fairies, Sprites, and Witches dwelt in the forests, there lived a tiny Fairy King whose name was Oberon, and though a wee mite, he felt very large, and would strut around in a most amusing manner. His Queen Titania was a beautiful fairy, and for so small a body she carried herself with great grace and dignity. Now, we find that fairies sometimes quarrel and do naughty things, just as do little girls and boys and even grown-ups at times. Fairy King Oberon and Queen Titania Often quarreled because Titania refused to give a little boy (whom she had reared) to King Oberon for a page.
