King Henry IV, part 2

Shakespeare, William, 1564-16162016
Books
More troubled and troubling than King Henry IV part 1, this play continues the story of King Henry's decline and Hal's reform. Though part 2 echoes the structure of the earlier play, it is a darker and more unsettling world, in which even Falstaff's revelry is more tired and cynical, and the once-merry Hal sloughs off his tavern companions to become King Henry V. James C. Bulman's authoritative edition provides a wealth of incisive commentary on this complex history play.
