[Book] New book

In the new book, Robert C. Williams inserted "Roger Bacon" into his otherwise correct description of the 13th January 1912 letter from Voynich to Thompson and answer:

On January 13 Voynich wrote Charles Thompson asking if he wanted to keep the Roger Bacon “13th century medical manuscript which I sent for your inspection.” Thomp­son did not. He would not pay more than ten pounds for it. This was probably the Voynich manuscript in some form. Thompson returned it to Voynich.

This seems to be an attempt to link this manuscript (?) with Bolton's book, supposedly providing a provenance:

Roger Bacon’s anniversary and Bolton's 1904 book provided Voynich with a provenance for a thirteenth-century alchemical-medical manu­script by Roger Bacon supposedly delivered by Dee and Kelley to seventeenth­ century Prague and the court of Rudolf II. But where was the evidence of such a manuscript if it ever existed?
