An important work that contains a detailed breakdown of Turkish manuscripts in the Chester Beatty Library. “ Turkish fine books and miniatures, though closely related to those of Persia, contain interesting features of their own. They are, however, not very well known, largely because of the European public collections are rather weak in good examples. I have been fortunate in acquiring a varied collection which includes some outstanding works, and I hope this catalogue will be a help to scholars and art-lovers alike” Foreword.
