Books
Susan Cooper's King of Shadows features Nathan Field as a character, but is a work of fiction. It is set in 1599, and uses Field's background as a student of Richard Mulcaster's at St. Paul's as a springboard. The Nathan Field in the story who briefly works at Shakespeare's Globe Theatre is actually a like-named boy from 1999, who has switched places with the young Elizabethan actor. He is starring in the book King of Shadows (Nat Field).
