The Oxford Handbook of the History of the Book in Early Modern England is apparently out now. The table of contents looks really good (see thread), but at a couple of hundred dollars I don't think I'll be getting my own copy, even if "Guilliam's Heraldry" does make an appearance in the cover image!
