Meetings with Remarkable Manuscripts

摘要

Because this book has already had very widespread publicity (helped by the carefully timed revelation—less than two weeks after publication—that the author believes he has identified 'the Psalter of Thomas Becket'), and numerous reviews, it is perhaps enough by way of introduction to say that it is in twelve chapters, each focussing on a single manuscript, in twelve different libraries, and that the whole is written in a first-person narrative style to engage the reader and vividly convey the experience of visiting the libraries and examining the manuscripts.
