Shakespeare the King James Version presents evidence for the proposition, first proposed by Malcolm X in his posthumously published autobiography, that the true author of the works of William Shakespeare was none other than King James VI & I. After a brief introduction, outlining the Shakespeare authorship question, that is the history of doubt regarding the identity of the author of the works of 'William Shakespeare', and a short summary of the major alternative candidates, the remarkable biography of James VI&I is presented in concise detail. Part Three compares the biography of James to the clues to the identity of the author of Shakespeare's works that have been uncovered by scholars over the centuries. This comparison includes a thorough examination of James's fitness with the criteria outlined by J. Thomas Looney in Shakespeare Identified. Part Four demonstrates the uncanny extent to which the works fit into the life of James VI & I and map onto major events in his life, particularly his lifelong ambition to succeed Elizabeth I to the English throne. The book concludes that the evidence is strong for James's authorhsip of Shakespeare's works. | Shakespeare the King James Version by Ian Stockdale, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
