[Sca-cooks] OT: for some, Bayeux tapestry

[Kirsten Houseknecht]

i just stumbled over a book at the local chain store (Barnes and Nobles)
The Bayeux tapestry by David M. Wilson
isbn 0- 500-25122-3  retail price $40.00

it was first published in like 1985 so it isnt new or anything

but complete detailed pictures of the entire tapestry, plus commentary
(including on the stitches, as well as on the history)
since i study (and teach for beginners) period stitchery, this was a nice
thing for me.

i am *sure* that the assorted evil booksellers (registered union number 666)
in the SCA must also carry it!

but having gotten a good look at it, i can tell you that it is well worth it
for study of the history OR the stitchery.
