Through Their Own Eyes: Liturgy as the Byzantines Saw It

An interesting looking title is set to be released June 1st: Through Their Own Eyes: Liturgy as the Byzantines Saw It

Description: Fr. Robert Taft, the leading scholar of Byzantine Liturgy, presents in vivid detail the actual experience of the Byzantine Church's liturgy throughout the centuries. In this examination, he offers the words of Byzantine commentators themselves on the details of Byzantine rituals, from the processional liturgies processing through the streets of Constantinople to the sometimes unruly and unseemly behavior of the people in attendance...

I can't say as I always agree with the personal commentary of Fr. Robert Taft, particularly as regards Western liturgics, but he is most certainly known for some good scholarship, as such, it would be a worthwhile book to investigate.
