    I have been reading Combe's book and have become interested in reading Pothier's Les Melodies Gregoriennes. There is a copy of this on Google Books (http://books.google.com/books?id=zQU6AAAAIAAJ), but I would like to get a printed copy. A company called "Nabu Press" has a reprint on Amazon. Is anyone familiar with the books produced by this company, in terms of the quality of the printing and binding?

    Also, has anyone seen the reprint of this volume by Stock Musique, 1980? There are a few copies of that on Abebooks.

    If anyone happens to be curious in getting a copy of this book, the Nabu press reprint is pretty good. The text is readable and the reproduction of the Google books version is good. There are two problems in my opinion: for some reason they omit the original title page, and the verso of the first page is printed as a recto, which means that the entire book is off by one page, which throws off the Desclee page layout a little bit.
