THE
FICKLE WHEEL
By HENRY THEW STEPHENSON
In this tale of merry England, of the time when Shakespeare jested and Ben Jonson blustered, Mr. Stephenson has painted for us a picture informing and above all entertaining. His is not a story of counts and crowns, but of ever interesting common people. Without seeming to do so the author shows us many interesting bits of the life of the day. We go to Paul’s walk, we see Shakespeare at the Globe theatre and other such glimpses of old time London are deftly added to our experiences. Throughout the book is an evanescent charm, a spirit of wholesome gaiety. It is well worth while.
