I have a copy of the book. It tells you how to index as I noted,

how to retrieve the date from search results. document.get("date")
only
returns Strings. How do I get it to return the Date object?
As mentioned, DateField is the class to use to convert back.
Retrieve the field as a String, then use DateField.stringToDate to
convert it back to a date.
There are some references to it in the book, though not as well
indexed, or placed, in the physical version as it should be. Looking
at lucenebook.com for DateField will show you where in the book it is
mentioned. Please take note of the caveats of using dates in this
manner - I personally don't recommend it.

I indexed dates using Field.Keyword(String,Date). The values seem

encoded when I retrieve them via document.get("date"). Luke
confirmed it.
How do I decode the Date when retrieving from Document object? Or
does it
not work in version 1.4.3? Also, does Lucene only sort String
values?
What ya need is a brand new copy of Lucene in Action :)

Look at the DateField utilities.
