For my money, James Shapiro's "Contested Will: Who Wrote Shakespeare"
demolishes all claims by any pretenders to the bard's mantle.

Check out *The Tudors on Film and Television*, by Sue Parrill and William
B. Robison (McFarland 2013) and the interactive website,

History teaches students to read intelligently, think analytically, write
clearly, accurately assess past trends, rationally predict future
developments, and understand the real world. Now *that* is workforce-ready!

History does offer us very real lessons, but they are seldom simple and
straightforward. To understand and benefit from them, you have to know your
history very well. That is why history matters as much as math, science,
technology, or any other subject.
