THE YOUNG POTTER

Explanatory how-to-do-it pictures are joined with a how-it-is-done text to provide the neophyte potter with an over all history of the art, an introduction to the necessary equipment and a guide to various techniques. To glaze or not to glaze is gone into as well as the step-by-step directions for successful firing. Jewelry, ceramics (both hobby and commercial), designs and approaches to the use of the potters' wheel are thoroughly covered without wasted words.
