How could William Shaksper of Stratford, who was illiterate, be the author of plays that have dazzled the world for centuries? Answer: he wasn't. His authorship is a remarkably successful hoax.
It was not until 1920 that J. Thomas Looney plucked Edward de Vere out of historical obscurity and introduced him as the real Shakespeare. In the next fifty years, powerful articles and books validated his authorship claim but much of this evidence has been neglected.
The first five volumes of this book series salvage this early research which makes Edward de Vere by far the likeliest candidate...

Few are aware that the true identity of William Shakespeare represents Western Civilization's greatest mystery. Even fewer realize that the commonly accepted authorship of William Shaksper of Stratford, who was illiterate, is a complete hoax manufactured by England's most powerful politicians.
The hoax survived largely unscathed until 1920 when J. Thomas Looney's brilliant book, ""Shakespeare" Identified," plucked Edward de Vere out of historical obscurity and introduced him to the world as the real Shakespeare. Fighting the astonishing power of Conventional Wisdom, de Vereans have...

“An exceptionally lucid and thorough exploration of the arguments supporting J.T. Looney’s controversial theory that the true Shakespeare was the Earl of Oxford. Masterfully organized, the book takes the reader through 100 primary reasons supporting the theory.

A compilation of columns ("A Year in the Life of Shakespeare") originally written by the author for the newsletter Shakespeare Matters from 2001-2005. Written from the Oxfordian point of view (i.e., that Edward de Vere, 17th Earl of Oxford, was the true Shakespeare), each column concentrated on just one year and discussed the known events in the author's life in conjunction with the recorded history and literature of that year, and the ways in which the plays and poems in the Shakespeare canon may reflect and/or comment on these connections.
