| Summary | "Warwickshire: The Land of Shakespeare" by Clive Holland is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The work explores the rich history and cultural significance of Warwickshire, particularly its connections to William Shakespeare. The book delves into various aspects of the county's heritage, including its scenic beauty, historic architecture, and the historical events that have shaped its identity. At the start of the book, the author sets the stage by celebrating Warwickshire's natural landscape, describing it as "leafy" and picturesque with "pleasant hills" and "fertile well-watered vales." Holland emphasizes the appeal of the county to historians, archaeologists, and tourists alike, drawing attention to its deep-rooted historical connections, particularly through the lens of Shakespeare's life and works. The opening portion outlines the ancient history of Warwickshire, highlighting its occupants from pre-Roman times through the Saxon period, and lays the groundwork for subsequent discussions of key landmarks, historical figures, and the enduring legacy of Shakespeare in the region.
