The Centre for the Book is delighted to congratulate Dunedin’s own Christopher de Hamel for his recent identification of one of the Parker MSS as almost certainly originally part of Thomas of Becket’s shrine at Canterbury Cathedral.  You can share Christopher’s enthusiasm in making the connections in this story from the Guardian.  Well done, and a true treasure for all book lovers.
