Review # 2 was written on 2016-11-25 00:00:00 Lloyd Bryant Interesting though it jumps around a bit. More of a Hx of the king and 15th cent Hungary than a book about the library and its texts, although it does touch on it. My edition could have done with a better proof reader. A few typos on dates with 15?? instead of 14??, so 100 years out. Also a couple of facts that seem just wrong (an Ottoman prince being held on Rhodes by the Knights Templars when they had been rubbed out/disbanded 170 or so years earlier...surely he meant the Hospitallers?) leaving me wondering what other errors I may have missed due to unfamiliarity with the period and subject. The author also quotes in Latin or Greek occasionally and gives no translation or clarification in the notes...this is a personal bugbear of mine...how long does it take to add this info? No need to do this, laziness or presumptuousness on the authors part. Good index and refs though.
