'Dr Prior in fact deals with his subject with extreme thoroughnessNot only does this book include a complete facsimile of the manuscript, it also contains a transcription into Roman script of the full text in the original language, with a translation and extensive commentary. A quite lengthy introduction gives the background to its text and its contents, including very useful information about the complex history of eastern Central Asia during the sixteenth through nineteenth centuries, (...) He has dealt very thoroughly with the ms and produced an impressive work of very high quality.' Stephen G. Haw, independent Mongolist, The Central Asiatic Journal, 56 (2013)
