Help!

Does anyone out there have access to the Columbia University library system? I've found a PhD thesis that I'd like to have a look at but before I lay down the $40 bucks, I'd like to know abit more about it!

So, if you have a spare few minutes, I'm after:

THE STAR MANTLE OF HENRY II by O'CONNOR, ELIZABETH CARROLL WALDRON, PhD COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY, 1980, 446 pages

You can access it via the digital collections.

What I'd like to know is are the images in colour (probably not) and is there much discussion of the embroidery as opposed to the astronomy?
