Associated Press writer Donald Sanders reports Alistair Cooke told an international audience that Shakespeare was scarcely noted in 17th century New England. He said fame came via frontier actors moving along the Alleghenies and Mississippi Valley where audiences sought blood and thrill, not refined drama. He credits McGuffey Readers with popularizing Shakespeare in the frontier and South.
