Shakspere's Loves Labors Lost

This is a facsimile copy of the first quarto of William Shakespeare's play 'Love's Labor's Lost', published in 1598. The play centers around King Ferdinand of Navarre and his three friends who swear to study and avoid women for three years, but their plans are disrupted by the arrival of the Princess of France and her ladies. This copy is unique because it is the first time the play was published and provides insight into the original text and formatting.
