Country Life May 20 2015
Country Life May 20 2015 reveals the true face of Shakespeare and studies the humble caterpillar.


This week in Country Life we uncover how one man cracked a complex Tudor code to reveal the true face of Shakespeare - the literary discovery of the century.
In this issue we also focus on Mediterranean property, admire the magnificent avian Fisher King, meet the man who brings hand-dived scallops from the Sound of Mull to London restaurants, we put the new Jaguar XE saloon to the test and we learn to cook with new potatoes.
