Fourteen recent, highly-recommended books
by leading Shakespeare authorship skeptics

Here are fourteen books by leading authorship skeptics published since the Declaration was issued in 2007, any one of which should have been sufficient to legitimize the issue, except orthodox scholars seldom read them. Most of the fourteen are neutral about the true identity of the author, but a few suggest an alternative candidate or scenario. We include them solely for the doubts they raise about Mr. Shakspere. The first four are “must reading” to fully understand why we say it is beyond doubt that the Stratford man wasn't Shakespeare.
