After defeat at the Battle of Shrewsbury the rebels regroup. But Prince Hal?s reluctance to inherit the crown threatens to destroy the ailing Henry IV?s dream of a lasting dynasty. Shakespeare?s portrait of the prodigal son?s journey from youth to maturity embraces the full panorama of society.

Each play includes an Introduction as well as an overview of Shakespeare?s theatrical career; commentary on past and current productions based on interviews with leading directors, actors, and designers; scene-by-scene analysis; key facts about the work; a chronology of Shakespeare?s life and times; and black-and-white illustrations.
Ideal for students, theater professionals, and general readers, these modern and accessible editions from the Royal Shakespeare Company set a new standard in Shakespearean literature for the twenty-first century.
