Arlys > I have three books to mention today, all of which could interest > those who are excited by the medieval and renaissance world and, > more specifically, the clothing and costume of those times. > > Firstly, we have struck a deal with Italian publisher, Polistampa, > to take copies of a book they published a couple of years ago and > which sold out very quickly. It is about to be reprinted and we will > have copies in April (my guess). 'Moda a Firenze, 1540-1580' > presents a collection of illustrated essays in both Italian and > English on costume and fashion inspired by Eleonora di Toledo's > arrival at the Medici court. It's a stunning book, brimful of > illustrations. Secure your copy now, before it sells out again. > > Going back a millennium or so, we are also going to be handling > Penny Rogers' much-anticipated 'Cloth and Clothing in Early > Anglo-Saxon England'. The book is due to appear in the next month or > so in England and I am hoping we will have copies in April. > > Links to both the above titles are given below. We are giving as > much information as we can (tables of contents, sample pages etc.) > and we're also offering good introductory prices on both books. > > The third book is one I have mentioned before: The Luttrell Psalter. > We are selling the British Library's amazing new facsimile edition > and the introductory price of $650.00 is good until the end of > March. After that it will be $750.00. Again, a link is provided > below. It's pricey, but it's beautiful. Prompted by a couple of > customers (we do listen sometimes!), we have decided to offer the > book on a 'lay away' basis to spread the financial burden. Write to > me for details. But remember: the price goes up after March 31st. > > Three very special books.
