Reviews

Emerging Potters Issue 28

If you are looking for a book that covers all the detailed step by step procedures need to successfully throw pottery on a wheel then this is a must to add to your library. Pottery by its very nature is a solitary pursuit so a good reference book detailing all stages of production is a must. It is clearly written by Mark Fitzgerald with lavish photos by Jason Minick.
