Hi all.
I just recieved my copy of Peter King's new book "Architectural
Ceramics". Wow. The book is profusely illustrated, full of wonderful ideas
and techniques, and a bargain overall. I have just started to go through
it, so I'm not sure of omissions, but I did feel a lack of focus on drying
and firing the extremely thick and large pieces that were illustrated.
Other than that, a beauty through and through. A good buy indeed.
