i haven't seen this book, but know David quite well and have thouroughly
enjoyed over a decade of his remarkably erudite, refreshingly witty papers on
monastic (esp. Cistercian) "Books and Libraries" delivered annually at K'zoo
--which probably formed the core of this work.
hard for me to believe that anyone else knows more about this subject than he
does.
highly recommended, sight unseen.
