About the Author

Nicholas Dobson was a lawyer for thirty-five years, his first degree being English studies. Fascinated by Shakespeares astounding breadth and depth of insight, the richness of his language, and his uncanny knowledge and instinct about the myriad nooks and crannies of the human condition, he was prompted to write a guide to the four plays where Shakespeares gallery of rogues, neer do wells and heroes engage in political rivalry and dark skulduggery.
