Very good reference book!
I was watching an old episode of "Forbidden History" that talked about the Voynich Manuscript, and the author was mentioned. So I HAD to do a search to find the book! Very happy to find a 1st edition hardcover with an illustration of each page of the Manuscript. Very little reading, illustrations could be a bit larger, but all in all I am very happy with my purchase!

Fascinating read.
Fascinating, full of information I did not know, perfect for those who love going down historical rabbit holes and learning wonderful (if useless) bits of knowledge! Love it.

Beautifully done. Full color illustrations; it's just like the real one.
This book satisfies 1 of my greatest curiosities. I had planned to travel to Ithaca to view this manuscript. Now I have it in my hands.

A serviceable hardcover copy
The book contains direct photos of the manuscript itself and maintains great visual clarity. There’s no real need to fuss about the font of the lettering because it’s impossible to read anyways.

ascinating and mysterious, but grayscale images are a letdown
The Voynich Manuscript is absolutely captivating — a true enigma packed with curious symbols, undeciphered text, and strange botanical drawings. It’s a must-have for anyone fascinated by history, codes, or ancient mysteries.The only downside is that all the illustrations are in grayscale. Given how unusual and detailed the original manuscript is, it would have been amazing to see it in full color. The black-and-white (or rather gray) printing makes some of the drawings lose their charm.Still, it's a unique and thought-provoking book that sparks the imagination.
