'The chapters that form The Production of Books in England, 1350–1500 are consistently high quality essays that create a well-integrated unit. Gillespie and Wakelin have taken care to envision the overarching purpose of the text and to solicit chapters that further the purpose - historicizing the creation of manuscript texts at the beginning of the print revolution. If their challenges are accepted, we can look forward to more varied and vital productions in history of the book.' Linda Englade, Rare Books Newsletter 'This volume will have a wide audience, since all the essays make an important contribution to the field of late medieval manuscript studies...an excellent and well-produced book that should quickly become the standard work for later medieval book history.' Elaine Treharne, The Review of English Studies
