Low Countries Imprints in Scottish Research Libraries (Paperback)

Previously a knowledge of the holdings of early Low Countries imprints in Scottish research libraries was confined to those of individual repositories or of the works of specific writers. Now this country-wide survey brings together for the first time that knowledge in a comprehensive way which will help researchers and librarians alike. As well as confirming the existence of rich, expertly edited and well printed holdings in standard subjects such as law, theology, medicine, classical studies and French literature, the survey reveals the existence of more esoteric materials on comets, ballistics and urban government.
