Excerpt from Shakespeare's Heroines on the Stage In so far as it is a literary sin to attempt the writing of any bit of history in a brief and anecdotical vein, I cry Peccavi. But what would you? To obtain simply the foundation for this book required patience-trying researches among dust-covered shelves where rested antique play-bills and moth-eaten records. To produce the much desired, but as yet unexisting, "Complete History of Shakespeare on the Stage," would necessitate the patience of Job and the age of Methuselah. I have not the one, nor can I reasonably expect the other. And even if I had both gifts, I should not ask my friends, the gentle readers, to emulate the man of sorrows in mentally struggling through such a ponderous work. For their sakes I have made this book as short as I could; I hope none will wish it were shorter. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Shakespeare's Heroines on the Stage, Vol. 2 The actors down in the green-room under the stage of this newly built John Street Theatre. Of the town of New York, shivered in the damp air, and won dered why the curtain was not raised. In the easiest chair - though not by any means an easy-chair sat the popular Miss Cheer, reflecting on a new tri umph imminent in Cleopatra, but not foreseeing the great disaster of later years, when with beauty lost through advancing age, and with a married name to take away the impressionable charm of maidenhood, she was to return to the stage, after the Revolution, only to be received with dissatisfied silence and to be relegated to minor characters.

Excerpt from Shakespeare's Heroes on the Stage IN the kindly notices, by the critics, of Shake speare's Heroines on the Stage, the suggestion was made, in a number of instances, that a companion volume, treating of remaining plays and of the Heroes, might prove a useful accompaniment; and for that reason this volume (entirely distinct from the other, and dealing almost entirely with another series of Shakespeare's plays) has been written.
