The "Ceramics Handbooks" are a series of highly illustrated, practical handbooks for both working potters and students wanting to experiment in a new area, and for teachers.

It includes plans for building a variety of kilns such as oil-burning, wood-firing, raku, salt-glaze and single and two chambered kilns.
