Reviews

This will be an invaluable volume, obviously useful to those interested in its name author and his works, but also to all those engaged with later Middle English religious texts and their manuscript contexts. Journal of the Early Book Society 2011 Hanna's descriptive catalogue is an invaluable source of information for those interested not only in Rolle's English canon but also in the compilation of the medieval English manuscript book itself. The 123 examples meticulously catalogued here offer an author-based insight into the reading habits and textual tastes of the later Middle Ages thoroughly examined and researched by a master in his own field. The Library, Vol 12, no.2 201107
