See More... Gatch, Milton McC. THE LIBRARY OF LEANDER VAN ESS AND THE EARLIEST AMERICAN COLLECTIONS OF REFORMATION PAMPHLETS.
BSA Occastional Publications, No.1 New York The Bibliographical Society of America 2007 4to. stiff paper wrappers. x, 202 pages.
Reformation pamphlets (or "Flugschriften") were among the first rare book acquisitions of American libraries. Gatch traces the remarkable history of the Leander van Ess collection purchased by the Union Theological Seminary in 1838, the first and largest collection of these religious tracts to arrive in America. He notes how they were originally obtained by van Ess, a Catholic priest, translator of the Bible, and a former Benedictine monk, who built an impressive personal collection of books and manuscripts when monastic libraries were being dispersed during the Napoleonic wars. Gatch has also identified a significant group of pamphlets assembled at Wittenberg during the 1520s, Luther's most creative period. Never before accurately described, the surviving pamphlets from this collection are listed here in the order of van Ess's own catalogue, with a set of indexes to authors and printers, and with concordances to major bibliographical resources. Gatch reviews the history Reformation pamphlet collecting in the United States from these earliest efforts up to the beginning of the twentieth century, and reflects on how these primary resources were used (or neglected) by American church historians. An extensive bibliography and a detailed index of the introductory essays are included. Illustrated. Distributed for the Bibliographical Society of America.

Cambridge Cambridge University Library 1992 large 8vo. stiff paper wrappers. xxviii, 164 pages.
Some account records of the early sixteenth-century Cambridge stationer and binder, Garrett Godfrey (????-1539) which were discovered at the Cambridge University Library in the boards of a volume bound by him. Text arranged so that a section of the accounts is transcribed on the left-hand page, with notes and explanations, corresponding line for line, on the right-hand page. Since these records show buyers (often Cambridge tutors), titles and quantities, and prices, one may form some notion of books used at Cambridge in the early 16th century, as well as of the state of the book trade then. With references, appendices (including some material from other Godfrey bindings), and indexes.
