I like this new Basics of … series, how-to books that cover subjects from beekeeping to business law in an easy-to-understand manner. Three cheers for these guides. - Nicolas Gilmartin Teranzi, Online Critics Corner At last, an alternative to those Dummies and Idiots series, one that treats readers as intelligent. - Martha Griswold, Domestic News This latest entry in the Basics of … series offers an excellent introduction to pottery, from clays and pastes to molds, casts, and pressings, from turning to firing, drying to decorating. You’ll learn how to throw a pot, fire a biscuit, and mix a glaze. What’s more, there are equipment lists, an expanded glossary, and instructions for selecting a kiln. Before you know it, you’ll become a pottery of impressive skill.
