Item description from seller

Black boards with wilver lettering; In Medieval and Renaissance Manuscripts in California Libraries, Ferrari provides a concise overview of the development of manuscript collecting in California, with particular attention to the Golden State's rich religious and cultural heritage. The author provides overviews of some of the most important manuscript collections in California, including the Huntington Library's Pierpont Morgan Collection, the Bancroft Library's Murasaki Shikibu Collection, and the California Palace of the Legion of Honor's Manuscript Collection. Ferrari also discusses lesser-known manuscript collections, such as the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory's Collection of Early California Paper Money. This book is an excellent resource for anyone interested in the history of California manuscripts or in the diversity of manuscript collections housed in California libraries.; 8vo; 185 pages.
