Description
William Shakespeare's Henry V is a gripping conclusion to the story of young Prince Hal. Tainted by his father's crimes and with enemies among his own men, King Henry must confront the difficult responsibilities of kingship. In rousing speeches, Henry rallies the English troops to spectacular victories that change the course of history. The war against France is not yet over, however, as Henry must secure a marriage with the French princess, Catherine of Valois, and navigate the complexities of civil war in England. This book includes a general introduction to Shakespeare's life and the Elizabethan theatre, as well as a commentary on his works, including Romeo and Juliet, Hamlet, Othello, King Lear, Macbeth, and a collection of 154 sonnets.
