Several years ago I got a great German book on carving through interlibrary
loan. The title sys that it's abut table customs to the end of the Middle
Ages, but as I recall there was quite a lot about carvers and  the art of
carving. It's a good secondary source and if you can handle the German
worth looking up. There are also some great photographs of dishes and
eating utensils.
