Sally,
" Ceramics" by Glenn Nelson is a good book for you to consider. It has
more than just kiln information for a beginner. Another book is "The
Potter's Primer"by Eleanor Chroman.
Go to your public library and check out the books they have for more
help. Mia in hot ABQ

Hi Mel,
Got the book this week. Watched the DVD, loved the wood firing with David.
