This early out-of-print book provides a scholarly survey of 19th and 20th Century American pottery and porcelain makers.  “…a useful tool for collectors and dealers for at least two reasons:  it contains information about what might be called ‘minor’ producers as well as the successful and long-lived firms; it also covers work of recent potters too current, or considered to be too unimportant to be worthy of study or recording.”
