Great introduction for kids and adults. Some great material on what to memorize, but misses it when he shows how to memorize. If you are looking to get into Shakespeare or introduce your kids to it, get this book. I picked up my Complete Works and started in again after reading this.
If you want some good memorization books, check these out first. I’ve read them all and they are all very good:
- The Memory Book: The Classic Guide to Improving Your Memory at Work, at School, and at Play
- Your Memory : How It Works and How to Improve It
- Memorize the Faith! (and Most Anything Else): Using the Methods of the Great Catholic Medieval Memory Masters
- Moonwalking with Einstein: The Art and Science of Remembering Everything
