This is the book-lover's Shakespeare, a convenient little volume, for reading and rereading--a book you will always want within easy reach. The Portable Shakespeare contains the brightest gems from the Shakespearean treasury, including seven favourite plays complete: Hamlet, Macbeth, Romeo and Juliet, Julius Caesar, A Midsummer Night's Dream, As You Like It, and Tempest; memorable passages from the other plays; all the sonnets and all the songs; and a key-word index to one thousand Shakespeare quotations.
