About this audiobook
Mark Twain does not think Shakespeare wrote the plays, and he says so in this long essay. He looks at the little that is known about the man from Stratford and asks how someone with so thin a record could have known so much about law, courts and kings.
Twain wrote it in 1909, near the end of his life, and it is funny, stubborn and full of his sharp humor. Read by Tony J Martin. Two hours and thirty-seven minutes.
For readers who enjoy a good argument.
