About this book
Needlework covers on Bibles, psalters and prayer books are the subject of Cyril Davenport's illustrated study, edited by Alfred W. Pollard, who adds a general introduction. Chapters sort the books by material: canvas, velvet and satin. Numbered plates show individual volumes, among them an embroidered bag for a book of Psalms dated London, 1633, a London Bible of 1612 and a manuscript by the Princess Elizabeth from 1544, mostly from the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. The book appeared in 1899.
