This carefully crafted ebook: "Shakespeare's Christmas Gift to Queen Bess" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. Excerpt: "The numberless diamond-shaped window panes of the Mermaid Tavern are twinkling like so many stars in the chill December air of London. It is the last meeting of the Mermaid Club for the year 1596, and not a member is absent. As they drop in by twos and threes and gather in groups about the room, it is plain that expectation is on tip-toe. They call each other by their Christian names and pledge healths. Some are young, handsome, fastidious in person and dress; others are bohemian in costume, speech, and action; all wear knee breeches, and nearly all have pointed beards." Anna Benneson McMahan (1846-1919) was American scholar and author of several books of classical literary works. Her accomplishments were unusual for a woman of her generation and she has a notable literary legacy.
