Pioneer Pottery is one of the classic texts in Ceramic literature. Its author,
Michael Cardew, was one of the seminal figures in British ceramics and his book,
written partly in response to his time spent in Africa, has influenced generations
of potters around the world.
This new edition is being brought out 33 years after it was originally published.
Michael Cardew's son, Seth, himself a well-known potter, has written a new introduction
to this volume. A color section including photographs of previously unshown work
is also included in the book. The text has largely been left unaltered from the
first edition, as much of it remains as relevant today as it was then, and the
book has become something of a historic document recording the methods and techniques
of a generation of potters. |

The Potter's Craft was really the first book in America (truly definitive about all aspects of ceramics art), that actually helped people get into ceramics in a serious way. It also set the basic structure for many books on ceramics that followed.
