Excerpt from Shakespeare's SelfIn short, Stratford was a thriving, busy, bustling little town 3 by no means sleepy full of active, alert men and women, workers almost all, a centre of life and trade to the neighbouring villages, in many of which Shakespeare had close relatives.Both in the ordinary affairs of life and in his work, the dramatist showed throughout his career his love for and full knowledge of his homeland, and a never-sated thirst for the sights and scenes of his boyhood. All his London time he showed keen interest in the doings of his fellow-townsmen and in the local politics of Stratford. In the end he returned there to spend his last days. Stratford was always his home. His contemporaries showed their appreciation of this fact by their never naming him in connection with London's Thames but with the Avon Of Stratford.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
