Book Synopsis Alabama Folk Pottery by : Joey Brackner
Book excerpt: "This book places historic Alabama pottery-making into a national and international context and describes the technologies that distinguish Alabama potters from the rest of the Southeast. It explains how a blending and borrowing among cultural groups that settled the state nurtured its rich regional traditions. In addition to providing a detailed discussion of pottery types, clays, glazes, slips, and firing methods, the book presents a geographic survey of the state's pottery regions with a comprehensive list of Alabama potters - a valuable resource for collectors, scholars, and curators."--BOOK JACKET.
