Description

 							The Millionaire and the Bard: Henry Folger's Obsessive Hunt for Shakespeare's First Folio by Andrea
Mays in epub, mobi, and pdf formats.
  
  
  
  Today it is the most valuable book in the world. Recently one sold for over five million
dollars. It is the book that rescued the name of William Shakespeare and half of his plays from oblivion. The
Millionaire and the Bard tells the miraculous and romantic story of the making of the First Folio, and of the American
industrialist whose thrilling pursuit of the book became a lifelong obsession.
  
  When Shakespeare died in
1616 half of his plays died with him. No one—not even their author—believed that his writings would last,
that he was a genius, or that future generations would celebrate him as the greatest author in the history of the
English language. By the time of his death his plays were rarely performed, eighteen of them had never been published,
and the rest existed only in bastardized forms that did not stay true to his original language.
  
  Seven
years later, in 1623, Shakespeare’s business partners, companions, and fellow actors, John Heminges and Henry
Condell, gathered copies of the plays and manuscripts, edited and published thirty-six of them. This massive book, the
First Folio, was intended as a memorial to their deceased friend. They could not have known that it would become one of
the most important books ever published in the English language, nor that it would become a fetish object for
collectors. 
  
  The Millionaire and the Bard is a literary detective story, the tale of two mysterious
men—a brilliant author and his obsessive collector—separated by space and time. It is a tale of two
cities—Elizabethan and Jacobean London and Gilded Age New York. It is a chronicle of two worlds—of art and
commerce—that unfolded an ocean and three centuries apart. And it is the thrilling tale of the luminous book that
saved the name of William Shakespeare “to the last syllable of recorded time.”
