Description

The Voynich Manuscript, named after Wilfrid Voynich, an antiquarian bookseller who acquired it in 1912 and is now housed at Yale University's Rare Book and Manuscript Library, is a fascinating book that contains more than 200 vellum pages of vivid, colorful illustrations and handwritten prose. There is only one problem: nobody knows what any of it means.
