Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Essential for all oriental rug scholars, collectors, dealers, and Islamic art historians, this is the first comprehensive bibliography written in English on oriental rug literature. ...the sheer amount of detail that is reflected throughout this book and the tremendous amount of dedication, discipline, thought, and plain hard work required to collect and organize it combine to remind us of the gratitude that we owe Mr. O'Bannon. --ORIENTAL RUG REVIEW
