Customer Reviews

Informative book, available in smaller/cheaper version

This book is quite informative. The same book appears to be available in a smaller (and much cheaper!) version titled "The Practical Potter". [My full review is at isbn 1843092069.] However the print is smaller, so if that will bother you, get this physically larger edition.

The Complete Practical Potter

This is a great easy-to-read overview for anyone who is beginning to work in pottery. It covers all of the main areas of clay - from the wheel to slab with wonderful photos and clear language. Great projects are suggested with complete instructions. It's well worth the price!

Fantastic!

What a GREAT book! For the accomplished to the beginning potter, this book is so very informative. With great new ideas, twists on some old ideas and the wonderful step-by-step projects, you'll find this book in your hands again and again. FABULOUS color pictures and written in down-to-earth english. An essential to any potter!

It is really practical!

I am a starter for pottery and I find this book really COMPLETE and PRACTICAL! It covers everything: from handbuilding, throwing to glazing, firing... It also has beautiful colored picture of samples. I believe it is very useful and I don't need another book on pottery for a couple of years.
