Arvustused

'The combination of such 'fly on the wall' photographs with more formal ones is backed up by thoughtful and informative texts on each artist...Highly recommended' Galleries magazine, March 2010 'At last a book that highlights the diversity and talent of present day British Potters.'

Even the monocrome picture on the cover tempts one to open the book and discover the treasures that lie within.' Nacorum & Chiltern Potters Guild, Summer 2010 '... a happy blend of text and image...' Crafts - May 2010 'a handsome book...with substance, honesty and surprise...if pots and potters intrigue you then this is one for both your reference shelf and your coffee table.'
