I think this is a great resource (along with "Shakespeare's Words") to have with you while reading Shakespeare. I liked it because a lot of the illustrations regard weaponry, clothing, and other very-visual terms that are out of date today, so it let me get a better picture of what the setting and characters would look like for many of these plays.

Great for junior high and high school readers, or people who want a picture in a hurry or haven't had much chance to visually experience Shakespeare. Very very helpful.
