This book is dedicated to Edward de Vere, the 17th Earl of Oxford, who was the playwright and poet we know as “Shakespeare,” one of the most accomplished, and tragic, figures in human history, who, by an improbable turn of events, was destined to die unrecognized as the flesh- and-blood person behind the “Shakespeare” pseudonym. He tells us in his Sonnets that "my name be buried where my body is," but he also tells us in these very same Sonnets his own true story, a story of how one of the greatest men in world history wound up dispossessed of his life's work and erased from history. It is a story told indirectly and subrosa, in a unique coded language. But it is there, and it is amazing.

Peter Rush is a professional analyst in the field of information technology, with a lifelong passion for history. He graduated Swarthmore College in 1969 and earned a Masters in History from the University of Michigan in 1973. He was drawn to the Shakespeare Authorship issue sixteen years ago because of his commitment to employing evidence-based methodologies to contentious issues and his interest in historical research. Since then, he has immersed himself in the controversy, including writing several newsletter articles and reviews for organizations involved in the Shakespeare authorship issue. He has also conducted extensive research on the Sonnets because, following the breakthrough discoveries of Hank Whittemore on the structure and meaning of the Sonnets, he believed that the Sonnets might hold vital clues that could finally resolve the controversy once and for all.
