Book Description

Excerpt from Francis Bacon, Poet, Prophet, Philosopher, Versus Phantom Captain Shakespeare It may interest those who are already converts to the Baconian theory of the authorship of the Plays, to learn that Mr Donnelly has made further discoveries. He writes under date 12th July 1890: "I am still at work, in all leisure moments, upon the Cipher, and am working out the complete and perfect story, and hope to publish something before long that will end the controversy."
