Introductions by Charles E. Passage

After I read Don Carlos, which is another play written by Schiller (also part of this series by Frederick Ungar Publishing), my profound compulsion for sameness and identity led me to search abebooks.com in order to complete the set.

I’ve always been this kind of person, wanting to have complete sets of books by a publishing company, an author.
