The Rogues And Vagabonds Of Shakespeare�������s Youth is a book written by Jonathan Awdeley and published in 1880. The book explores the seedy underbelly of Elizabethan society, specifically focusing on the rogues and vagabonds that Shakespeare would have encountered during his youth.

Awdeley also discusses the ways in which these individuals were portrayed in literature and the arts, including in Shakespeare's own works.
