Which is the most famous, least read book ever written in Britain? It must be the Domesday Book, a census of the population and resources of England in AD 1086.
Now it's to appear cheaply: the Latin text with an English translation, edited by Dr John Morris of University College, London. He believes that the Domesday Book should be easily available to everyone for research, or just for the pleasure of knowing that a watermill has been in the same place for 1,000 years.
