Description
Part of the authoritative and acclaimed Penguin Shakespeare series, now rejacketed in the celebrated Penguin Classics livery.
Henry IV Part One follows Prince Hal, the son of King Henry IV, as he spends his time in idle pleasure with dissolute friends, among them the roguish Sir John Falstaff. However, when the kingdom is threatened by rebellious forces, Prince Hal must abandon his reckless ways.
Taking arms against a heroic enemy, he begins a great and compelling transformation—from irresponsible reprobate to noble ruler of men.
