Thomas Of Woodstock (play)

Thomas of Woodstock and Richard the Second Part One are two common names for an untitled, anonymous and apparently incomplete manuscript of an Elizabethan play depicting events in the reign of King Richard II. Some scholars have attributed it to William Shakespeare, although it does not appear in at least two of the major editions of the Shakespeare Apocrypha. The play often is cited as being a probable influence upon Shakespeare's Richard II, as well as possibly Henry IV, Parts 1 and 2.

    ...I believed passionately that Communists were a race of horned men who divided their time equally between the burning of Nancy Drew books and the devising of a plan of nuclear attack that would land the largest and most lethal bomb squarely upon the third-grade class of Thomas Jefferson School in Morristown, New Jersey.
    Fran Lebowitz (b. 1950)
