Also reviewed are examples of the wares and glaze decorations by the talented children and grandchildren of the three brothers: Patricia Anderson Findeisen, Adele Anderson Lawton, James Anderson, Michael Anderson, Christopher Inglis Stebly, and Peter Wade Anderson. Furthermore, Stewart greatly expands upon the pottery marks documented by Christopher Maurer in DREAMING IN CLAY ON THE COAST OF MISSISSIPPI (Doubleday, 2000), as he examines the identification, dating, and attribution of Shearwater wares in-depth with color photos of pottery bases showing almost all known incised and/or stamped thrower and decorator ciphers.
