Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a series of scenes from 16th century London, capturing the bawdy and raucous world of Shakespeare and his friends. The author plunges us into the raucous taverns and bustling streets, providing insight into the lives of the groundlings, moneylenders, rogues and whores that rubbed shoulders with literary giants.
