The Rivals (crofts Classics)

Based on the 1776 edition, the last revised by Sheridan himself, this edition includes the author's preface and the original stage directions for Act V. The original language has been retained; punctuation, however, has been substantially modernized. Edited by Alan S. Downer, this edition of The Rivals for performance and study also includes an introduction, a list of principal dates in the life of Richard Brinsley Sheridan, and a selected bibliography.
