Richard III by William Shakespeare.

Although parts of it arent his style and its been thought that they were added my his friends at a later date.

Its never been proven that ol' William wrote any of his plays either.

Macbeth & Richard III are quite good :D

Umm...it basically got rammed into heads last year at school for our SATS, and it spoiled the whole thing, I'm so sick of it, I can't even stand to see the word "Macbeth" now. Argh.

Oh shush.

Rubbish, Andrew, you don't study one book for 2 years!

You study a Shakespeare play and write an essay on it. It takes a few months of one year- for us it was year 10. Then you study another book and write an essay if you're doing Literature as well as language. Then you write an essay on poetry.

Living History by Hillary Rodham Clinton. Pretty good read, but she's kind of long winded.

To Ride Pegasus, by Anne McCaffrey. Its book one of 8 in a series about the parapsychic (telepaths, teleports, claivoyants, etc). Really good series. First book has a lot of technical and explaination, but gets better fast.
