Sir Sidney Lee (1859 1926) was a lifelong scholar and enthusiast of
Shakespeare, but is also remembered as the 'sub-editor' recruited
by Sir Leslie Stephen when he was embarking on the project of the
Dictionary of National Biography, and whose editorial and
organisational skills were vital in keeping the publication
programme close to its planned schedule. His own contributions to
the Dictionary included an account of the life of Queen Victoria
and (in Volume 51, 1897) William Shakespeare. This study of
Stratford-on-Avon was first published in 1885, and the greatly
enlarged version, reissued here, in 1890. (In 1898 Lee produced his
biography of Shakespeare (also reissued in this series), regarded
for much of the twentieth century as the most reliable account of
Shakespeare's life.) This illustrated work draws on the archival
material then available to provide a history of the town of
Stratford up to the time of Shakespeare's death.
