Francis Bacon Wrote Shakespeare by H. Crouch Batchelor is a controversial book that presents the theory that William Shakespeare was not the true author of the works attributed to him, but rather they were written by Sir Francis Bacon. The book explores the evidence and arguments that support this theory, including similarities in writing style, personal connections between Bacon and the Shakespeare family, and Bacon's own interest in theater and literature. Batchelor also delves into the historical context of the time and the political climate that may have influenced Bacon's decision to write under a pseudonym. This book challenges the traditional view of Shakespearean authorship and offers a compelling alternative theory that has sparked debate among scholars and Shakespeare enthusiasts.The arguments pro and con frankly dealt with. The author incorporates his lecture that had the purpose of supporting the proposition that Francis Bacon wrote the whole of the literature which has passed under the name of Shakespeare, with considerable additions, to comprise this book. He states that not one objection to this theory which has been raised within his knowledge will be evaded or left unanswered.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
