Charles and Mary Lamb wrote Tales from Shakespeare in 1807, providing readers with a quick reference to some of the Shakespeare plays. They were siblings, Mary Lamb was responsible for presenting the comedies and Charles presented the tragedies. They avoided the more complex history plays, in part because their audience was children.
