"This is a book about why medieval manuscripts matter. The idea for the book, which
is entirely new, is to invite the reader into intimate conversations with twelve of
the most famous manuscripts in existence and to explore with the author what they
tell us about nearly a thousand years of medieval history -- and sometimes about the
modern world too. Part travel book, part detective story, part conversation with the
reader, Meetings with remarkable manuscripts conveys the fascination and excitement
of encountering some of the greatest works of art in our culture which, in the originals,
are to most people completely inaccessible."
