Gee, as an undergrad, none of my history profs would have accepted the Bard as an acceptable source or reference. After all, he wrote fiction!
"Often this would lead writers to change their own version of history to suit whomever happened to be sitting on the throne."
I love this! It perfectly describes revisionist historians!
Thanks, Kris!!!
