The eighth Lost Diary -- factually accurate, fictionally funny! William Shakespeare himself needs no introduction, but not everyone knows the secrets of his success! How could a man so busy with life in Elizabethan England have had time to write all those plays and poems? Enter stage right, Egbert Noah Bacon -- one of his writing group who, quill in hand, gives us a new perspective on the Bard himself and of a fascinating period of English history: Includes Spanish Armada, Gunpowder Plot, Queen Elizabeth First's life...and death...and successor. The Plague, the invention of the lavatory and, of course, the building and burning of the Globe Theatre.
