Review
"Jonathan Horne was an international authority of English Pottery who had a wonderful reputation among collectors of early ceramics from here to Tokyo. Sadly, Horne is no longer with us and his loss and scholarship is felt keenly amongst fastidious collectors, archeologists, and connoisseurs world wide, many who have contributed the appreciative essays which make up this distinguished book devoted to his memory."--The Birmingham Post
