The anonymous 17th-century drama known as Thomas of Woodstock or Richard II, Part One has excited debate and controversy among Shakespeare scholars for more than 150 years. Did he write it? Or is it just a knock-off by an ambitious plagiarist? This anthology of articles and book extracts introduces readers to both sides of the debate, with selections covering more than 150 years of 'Woodstock Studies.' Contributors include J.O. Halliwell, Wolfgang Keller, F.S. Boas, Bertram Lloyd, A.P. Rossiter, Wilhelmina P. Frijlinck, Ian Robinson, Eric Sams, MacDonald P. Jackson, Rainbow Saari, and editor Michael Egan.

Michael Egan graduated from Witwatersrand University, South Africa, earned his PhD at Cambridge University, UK, then went on to lecture in English at Lancaster University, UK. Later, he taught at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, USA, and Brigham Young University, Hawaii, USA, where he was Scholar in Residence. Michael is the author of multiple scholarly articles and 14 books, including The Tragedy of Richard II, Part One (four volumes, 2006), The Tragedy of Richard II, Part One, An Acting Edition (2017), and Shakespeare's Hand in the Troublesome Raigne of John King of England, And Why He Wasn't Arrested in 1601 (2021).
