One of the most useful sections of the bibliography is an analysis of the Horae B. M. V. and a series of charts devoted to the illustrations in the editions at Harvard. Among the many illustrations in Miss Mortimer's catalog there are a number devoted to the fine Renaissance bindings in the Hofer collection."
