The Shakespeare Thefts by Eric Rasmussen

Renowned Shakespeare scholar Eric Rasmussen embarked on a riveting journey around the globe, involving run-ins with criminal street gangs in Tokyo, reclusive billionaires, and intense battles of wills with secretive librarians. Part literary detective story, part Shakespearean lore, The Shakespeare Thefts will charm the Bard's many fans.
'Detailed, humorous and absolutely fascinating, this is an impressive piece of detective work, a startling insight into human covetousness, and a delicious slice of Shakespearean lore' - The Good Book Guide
