Thanks to funding from the European Research Council, the full text of H. A. G. Houghton's The Latin New Testament: A Guide to its Early History, Texts, and Manuscripts (OUP: 2016) is now available in Open Access. It can be downloaded as a PDF from the OUP catalogue entry or accessed through Oxford Scholarship Online.

In his extensive appraisal of the book in the February 2017 issue of the Expository Times Prof. Paul Foster concludes :

It is difficult to exaggerate the importance and significance of this book for the study of the transmission of the Latin New Testament text—there is simply nothing to rival it. The book is a model in clear communication, and the important features of large amounts of information are explained with a light touch that reflects the deep understanding that Houghton possesses of his subject matter. This book is a masterpiece, and it will be admired as such for many decades to come.
