How to Make Primitive Pottery

Rating:
Summary: not too exciting
Review: i have been hanbuilding and pit-firing pottery for a number of years and was not particularly impressed with this book. it might be a good source of information for beginners but it is not at all inspiring or even visually appealing. there are several other books about the techniques involved in this type of pottery production that folks should take a look at first.

Rating:
Summary: Good book for novice primitive pottery makers
Review: I never previously attempted any pottery creations and had no idea where to start. This book pointed me in the right direction and gave me confidence that even a beginner might make pottery pieces. Following directions I dug clay from my property, tempered it, made the pottery and pit-fired it. It actually turned our reasonably well for a first attempt. An easy to read and follow beginners guide. Well worth the price!
