Now we can check the facsimile against Kenneth Be on YouTube, and D. Towne
on the Fronimo page (and perhaps someone may even take on to put also book
two there?). Kudos to all involved in putting this landmark facsimile freely
on the net!

Rota Fortuna, in honor of the 500th anniversary of Spinacino's publication,
is now available. Details can be found at the following link:
