BROWNE, Herbert Janvrin
Is It Shakespeare's Confession?
Washington, D.C., A.S. Witherbee, 1887. A 20-page pamphlet dedicated to proving that the epitaph on Shakespeare's gravestone contains the sentence (via cryptogram) "Francis Bacon wrote Shakespeare's plays." One name (Ignatius Donnelly) underlined in the introduction. Covers dust-soiled; else near fine in self-wrappers, with a fold-out of the epitaph tipped-in. No copies in OCLC.
