The Book of William: How Shakespeare’s First Folio Conquered the World by Paul Collins
Shakespeare’s First Folio, the first complete collection of his plays, was almost never printed. Its eventual publication went practically unnoticed, and many of the original 750 copies were gone before the turn of the eighteenth century. But a hundred years later the plays were rediscovered, beginning the long, surprising process that secured Shakespeare’s legacy. Paul Collins follows this book’s journey through the centuries, as it lies undiscovered for decades, burns, sinks, is bought and sold, and ultimately becomes untouchable.

The Shakespeare First Folio Sotheby’s Catalogue 2006
Sotheby’s, London, separate auction catalogue for Lot 95 in the sale held on 13th July, 2006. The separate catalogue entirely devoted to this interesting copy of Shakespeare’s first folio.
Catalogue aside, this is a comprehensive write up on The Shakespeare First Folio. The First Folio is of major importance as it is the first collected edition of Shakespeare’s plays, without which there may not have been a William Shakespeare.
