My local bookshop owner first told me about this book on December 12th. As I recall, she told me the book was being published also in the U.S. - and would be available here in May. So, if it is easier for you, you could advance order it on this side of the Atlantic. The author is Clare Browne, who is on the staff of the V & A. Anything from their collections and presses promises to be good. Not having seen anything about this book on Arachne by January (and not seeing it at that time on the V & A's list of forthcoming publications) I made an inquiry to that esteemed museum and verified that the book was, indeed, forthcoming. Information about it was sent from here to a member of The Lace Guild (England), so they might be able to get an advance copy and review it in a timely manner. This has been done, and the review will appear - probably in the next issue of The Lace Guild's bulletin - per the recent advisory to us from Jean Leader.
