The
Complete Potter's Companion
by Tony Birks, et al
Revised and updated, this classic potter's volume explains everything
from preparation through firing, with stops along the way for detailed
coverage of working on the wheel; coiled, slab, and pinch pots; mold making;
slip casting; and glazing and decorating. The comprehensive text ranges
from basic (wedging and kneading, beginning wheelwork) to advanced (spray
glazing, raku firing). The no-frills design of the book packs almost too
much information on a page, but the instructions are clear and thorough,
the photos (more than 450, all in color) are straightforward and helpful,
and the stunning examples of work by contemporary potters provide additional
inspiration. Amazon.com
