A little difficult to listen to but generally I got the drift of the plays and the language. Major historical figures appear and disappear and having no visuals it's difficult to know who's speaking but the plays are quite engrossing. ( )

Note: I haven't read this actual volume; this is a shorthand way of putting them all on my reading-through-history shelf.

Four stars because the best - Henry IV, Richard II & III - are the best, while the worst - Henry VIII, most of the Henry VIs - are pretty crap. ( )

This is collection of Shakespeare's history plays, nicely arranged and compiled for easy access. I do not like that there are no annotations or references to help and guide me. ( )

Shakespeare's histories are the least interesting of his plays, in general. Richard III and Henry V are the clear exceptions. ( )
