Reviews

It is an easy matter to recommend this painstaking, sympathetic, effective contribution to the history of English medieval books.
*JOURNAL OF ECCLESIASTICAL HISTORY*

There are many other treasures in this collection.. Only by browsing this catalogue, magnificently supplemented by over a hundred images, can the significance of [it] be properly appreciated.
*PARERGON*

We should be very grateful for Thomson's excellent textual identifications and discussions of provenance and library history.
*THE LIBRARY*

As well as being a work of outstanding, detailed scholarship - that scholarship worn deceptively lightly - this is also the most handsome, large, quarto volume, appropriately and clearly designed and beautifully printed. All in all, this is not only a fascinating, detailed insight into a mediaeval working library and its contents, but also a handsome volume reflecting well on the author, publisher and subject.
*REFERENCE REVIEWS*

Thomson's valuable and beautifully produced catalogue will stand as a foundation document.
