3) FREE EBOOK - As You Like It - by William Shakespeare
As You Like It is considered by many to be one of Shakespeare's
greatest comedies, and the heroine, Rosalind, is praised as one of
his most inspiring characters and has more lines than any of
Shakespeare's female characters. It is believed that As You Like
It was first performed between 1599 and 1600 and first printed in
1623 in the First Folio.
