The right combination
A superb book.
There is no one better qualified than Janet Backhouse to discuss any illuminated manuscript from the middle ages. There is no illuminated manuscript from the middle ages more splendid than the Sherborne Missal. Put the two together, and the only conceivable way the result could be improved would be to have all the illustrations in color.

A wonderful collection or art and writing. A great addition to my research library. Such a unique style, too.
Beautifully done!
This book is a great value for the money, for those who enjoy beautiful illuminations and medieval art. The Sherborne Missal, though not well-known is a wonderful example of late medieval British art. There are many color illustrations included, as well as a description of the missal and its history, and this book is a great value for the price that I am glad I bought.
