About this ebook

Shakespeare knew like few others how to dramatize the gossipy lives of kings. More importantly, he knew that just because it was history, that didn't mean it was boring. Today, however, Shakespeare's histories can be a bit of a drudge to plow through. Let BookCaps help with this modern translation of the classic history play.

If you have struggled in the past reading Shakespeare, then BookCaps can help you out. This book is a modern translation of Richard II.

The original text is also presented in the book, along with a comparable version of both text.

We all need refreshers every now and then. Whether you are a student trying to cram for that big final, or someone just trying to understand a book more, BookCaps can help. We are a small, but growing company, and are adding titles every month.

This was extremely helpful for me, and well-written. I've never been good with Shakespeare, so having the original and "modern" versions together was perfect.
