A three volume set of William Shakespeare's timeless works from Nicolaus Delius' texts.

Although the exact timeline of Shakespeare's works is rightfully open to conjecture, this set presents them according to the research of Delius, which highlights The Bard's own growth in poetry and art. The most complete works of Shakespeare's before the public at the time, 'The Two Noble Kinsmen' and 'Edward III' are also included as Shakespeare is thought to have contributed much to them.
