Reviews

'The wealth of factual evidence included in this book is impressive. Brown's close and detailed analysis of the individual elements of the Book of Cerne, particularly its codicology, paleography and text; her demonstration of the interrelationship of text, script and decoration; and her discussion of the historical context in which the manuscript was produced make this book a must for anyone interested in Insular manuscripts.' -- Catherine E. Karkov * Bryn Mawr Medieval Review *
