Barry Day THIS WOODEN O First Edition Signed by Zoe Wanamaker

First edition first print hardback of THIS WOODEN 'O' (Shakespeare's Globe Reborn) by Barry Day (with a Foreword by Sir John Gielgud) and published by Oberon Books in 1996. Signed by Zoe Wanamaker on the half title page.

The book is in near fine condition (blue cloth boards with gilt lettering to spine) with no significant wear. The book is in a near fine unclipped dust jacket which also has no wear to speak of. Internally the pages are clean and tight and there are no tears or other inscriptions.

The official story of the rebuilding of Shakespeare's Globe Theater in London from the American actor-director Sam Wanamaker's ideas conceived in 1949 to the official opening in 1996. The book takes us through Byzantine plots and counterplots in its reconstruction of the battle between idealists and nay-sayers. Events portrayed through the eyes of the participants - a unique gathering of scholars, architects, officials, archaeologists, actors, directors, property developers and politicians.

328 pages including Illustrations, Bibliography and Index.
