CRRS
Every other month, CRRS Fellow Scott Schofield will showcase a rare book from our collection. Our first book showcased was Francesco Filelfo's Epistolae [Basel; before July 1496]. Our current feature book is Richard Knolles' Historie of the Turkes [London, 1603]. For more information on the Book of the Month see the description of this exciting new project.
