520    "This is a book about why medieval manuscripts matter. The
       idea for the book, which is entirely new, is to invite the
       reader into intimate conversations with twelve of the most
       famous manuscripts in existence and to explore with the 
       author what they tell us about nearly a thousand years of 
       medieval history -- and sometimes about the modern world 
       too. Part travel book, part detective story, part 
       conversation with the reader, Meetings with remarkable 
       manuscripts conveys the fascination and excitement of 
       encountering some of the greatest works of art in our 
       culture which, in the originals, are to most people 
       completely inaccessible."--|cProvided by publisher.
