Greville is a great, and difficult poet — and Thom Gunn’s edition of his poetry has recently been reissued by U of Chicago Press, ISBN 0-226-30846-4.

Best one-stop criticism on just about everything officially attributed to Greville:

The Sidney Journal Vol. 19 issues 1-2, Special Double Issue on Fulke Greville ($14): http://www.sidneyjournal.org/content/purchase

Best biography is:

Rebholz, R. A. The Life of Fulke Greville, First Lord Brooke (1971)

Two others:

Rees, Joan. Fulke Greville, Lord Brooke, 1554-1628: A Critical Biography (1971)

Larson, Charles Howard. Fulke Greville (1980)

On Greville’s poetry (especially lyrics), the best book is:

Waswo, Richard. The Fatal Mirror; Themes and Techniques in the Poetry of Fulke Greville (1972)

Nice web compilation of poetry, mini-bio, and criticism can be found in the Luminarium: http://www.luminarium.org/renlit/fulkebio.htm

Fulke Greville,Lord Brooke was not only a great poet and Statesman to three Monarchs he was also the first Grand Master of the Rosicrucian Order.
So obviously it would have been in his and the Goverments interest for him to remain secretive in his pursuing of written works.
Experts around the World including Author AWL Saunders and Historian Christopher Fulke Greville may well unearth the truth to prove Fulke Greville,Lord Brooke was in fact the Master of Shakespeare.
Once this is proved the History books will have to be re-written and Fulke Greville to be recognised as a the true,great English Poet.
