I am relieved to be finished with this book. It was interesting for the most part, but I am ready for something a little less dense.
My favorite of the last chapters was the one about King James and how Shakespeare used the knowledge of the King's superstitions to write Macbeth. Apparently, King James wrote a book about withcraft, so the witches in Macbeth surely would have interested the King.
The end of the book mostly concerns some of Shakespeare's land deals and his will.
This was not a real page-turner, but I am glad I read it.
