Just in case I haven't made it obvious enough this week that I'm trying to catch up on a reading backlog:
From the most recent Common-place, Michael Winship (Iris Howard Regents Professor of English Literature II at the University of Texas at Austin and a wonderful 'historian of the book') has a "Tales from the Vault" column, "The Printing Press as an Agent of Change? Early Missionary Printing in Thailand." Highly recommended.
