Additional features include a glossary and a brief biography of the Bard.  The text used is the 1998 Arden Shakespeare Complete Works, long a favorite of students as well as performers...With its modest price and carefully constructed indexes, The Arden Dictionary of Shakespeare Quotations is the place to 'brush up your Shakespeare.'"—Booklist
