RICHARD REX is Professor of Reformation History at the University of Cambridge.
[A] strikingly illustrated book, which reproduces in colour every
centimetre of the surviving embroidery. [...] Admirably balanced
and informed.
*SUNDAY TIMES, Books for Christmas round-up 2005.*
[An] extremely valuable volume. [...] To be valued as both a survey
of work on the tapestry and an extremely well presented and
coherent analysis of a medieval masterpiece.
*TOEBI Newsletter*
A magnificently illustrated book, and as such is extremely
practical for study, teaching and happy browsing.
*FINDS RESEARCH GROUP*
[Presents] a new slant, particularly the in-depth analysis of the
tapestry's indebtedness to Scandinavia's weaponry, ships, and
buildings. Recommended.
*CHOICE*
Possibly the most authoritative of the many books spawned by the
Tapestry.
*HISTORICAL NOVELS REVIEW*
Handsome and very reasonably priced. Clearly aimed at the student
and the general reader rather than at the specialist, it would be
an attractive purchase for all three.
*ENGLISH HISTORICAL REVIEW*
A very interesting and informative book.
*HOBILAR*
