Best Answer

Shakespeare must have been a voracious reader, as he stole his plots from a wide variety of sources. His favourite source to steal from was probably Holinshed's Chronicle, a history and geography of Great Britain. Shakespeare used this not only for the history plays but also for Macbeth and King Lear.
