The History's Great Structures series is a comprehensive look at some of the world's most recognizable man-made edifices, and this volume describes the turbulent history of the infamous playhouse built on the banks of the Thames River in London in 1599. Through the tale of the creation, destruction, and recreation of the building, readers are exposed to a history of theater, the seminal works of the Bard, England's golden age and Civil War, and American actor Sam Wanamaker's tenacity in raising funds for the theater's restoration in the 1990s. This is a study of recapturing the material heritage of buildings, as the Globe's modern rendition was planned by scholars who examined original plans, maps, and papers. Unfamiliar words are included in the marginalia, helping makes this a solid resource on a fascinating topic.
