The Famous History of the Life of King Henry the Eighth (Applause Shakespeare Library Folio Texts)

Summary: Shakespeare's best play
Review: This is the best work of Shakespeare that I have read. It contains jems of wisdom, such as the fall of Cardinal Wolsey, or the sympathetic speaches of Queen Catherine. These are also events of history, not far removed from Shakespeare's own times; tragic events which ultimately reshaped the world we live in.
