"A comprehensive listing of materials relating to the production of pottery, porcelain, dinnerware, and architectural terra cotta in America before 1930. ... In the appendix is a guide to selected American clayworking, ceramics, china painting, and crockery journals published before 1930. It provides for the first time a comprehensive list of journals, their publication dates, and a brief description of their scope. The indexing of these journals makes important historical information more accessible than it has been. A chapter on suggestions for additional research is provided. For these reasons this text is a valuable reference source for those interested in studying aspects of ceramic history in the United States."-American Ceramic Society. Ceramic Abstracts

"This thorough, well-made compilation, the first bibliography devoted to the history of American ceramics, is a great service to the field....Weidner's bibliography is highly recommended. Not only is it the first book on the subject but it is carefully done by an author who is very familiar with the field; it should serve as an excellent aid to researchers and pottery lovers."-Art Documentation
