Following in the footsteps of such luminaries as Samuel Johnson and Samuel Taylor Coleridge, in the final 10 years of his life, Tanner took on the project of writing a preface to each of Shakespeare's plays. The result is a comprehensive collection that serves as an indispensable guide to the general reader, to people who go to see Shakespeare's plays, and to teachers.
