"A much needed and long awaited bibliography, this will serve the undergraduate student well, and provide a good basic bibliography for the graduate student. There are other excellent bibliographies that deal with one of the time periods or one geographic area, but none that approaches the scope of this work. Because there is little else readily available, the chapters on the medieval and Renaissance periods are especially valuable.... Separate name and author indexes are provided. All of the 6,894 items included in the bibliography are published monographs or journal articles accessible in the US.... [This] is an outstanding piece of work and an absolute necessity to all college and university collections."-Choice
