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.
