Publisher's Note
"Edward III" was first published, anonymously, in 1596. Though most scholars now discern Shakespeare's hand in the play, academic uncertainties over "collaboration," "plagiarism," and "memorial reconstruction" have kept it firmly outside the canon. Now Eric Sams, whose "The Real Shakespeare" confirmed the playwright as a writer of popular plays from an early age as well as an assiduous reviser of his own work, offers a fastidious new edition that authenticates "Edward III" as Shakespeare's own, unaided work. As well as Shakespeare's full text, this edition includes a detailed synopsis, copious notes for the general reader, and a conspectus of previous commentary. In particular it presents a close analysis of many hundreds of resemblances classified under some thirty headings (such as antithesis, Biblical and classical reference, imagery, favorite topics, vocabulary, word-play, manuscript characteristics, and canonical parallels) that together identify the author beyond reasonable doubt. Four hundred years after its first appearance, "Edward III" is at last restored to the stage, the literary world, the public, and to William Shakespeare himself.

Industry reviews
"The only reason for excluding 'Edward III' from the canon can be that the authorship of its scenes of war in France is less certain than the countess scenes. Sams argues vigorously that the whole play is by Shakespeare, but even if he is wrong, if your edition is to include collaborative works, than 'Edward III" must be among them."
