"Siegelaub has painstakingly catalogued, annotated and indexed (by both
country and subject) the library's multi-lingual holdings, and the result is
this substantial bibliography, the first of its kind. ... This publication
has the added attraction of having an in-depth and thought-provoking essay on
the history, ideology and approaches to the literature of textiles since the
15th century .... If there ever is a 'hall of fame' for bibliographies, [it]
deserves a place beside Creswell's on Islamic art and architecture,
Ferguson's on inventions, and Arntzen & Rainwater's on art history."
Alan Kennedy, Hali, 103, March-April 1999
"This astonishing bibliography takes into account all facets of textile
literature. ... To date textile historiography suffers from a fragmentation
into fields of interest that are cut off from each other. Thus the work done
by the author and the CSROT Foundation is all the more worthy of our
attention and support.. This publication should be available on the shelves
of every scientific library." TextileForum, 4/97
"[Its] multidisciplinary approach to the history of textiles also means
that the bibliography covers not only the more traditional types of literature
..., but also such items as legislative collections ...; industrial or craft
technical manuals, socio-economic histories; travel journals; and more
general works on specific areas of textile history (Islamic textiles coverage
is particularly strong in this regard). .... The volume's classification
system would also enable a librarian to base a more than respectable library
collection on it as well as start a researcher on an appropriate
bibliographic track. ... An important reference addition to ... library
collections." Art Libraries Journal, 3, 1998
"[It] provides a comprehensive tool as an initial resource, with
detailed annotations and references and a number of interesting
illustrations. While it takes a truly international approach there is inevitably
a European and Asian emphasis. .... We believe that at a price of US$
[150.00] this unique bibliography would make a valuable addition to any
textile, historical or archaeological library, archive, museum or auction
house. In fact there may be a place for this title on the bookshelves of
textile and history enthusiasts." Canadian Textile Journal,
