"Being a revised and expanded edition of those parts of 'The Ceramic Art of Great Britain' by Llewellynn Jewitt, F.S.A., dealing with the nineteenth century." "Jewitt took immense pains to gather a mass of information on the potters of his century and their then contemporary wares, and this is uniquely interesting and helpful to present-day collectors. Many of the potters he includes are not recorded elsewhere. In Mr. Godden's skilled hands, this monumental, if somewhat cumbersome, Victorian study has become a work of fascinating interest and easy reference to the modern collector, whether he be expert or beginner. Mr. Godden has rearranged the material in a more logical sequence, expanded the history to the year 1900, added much new information which later research has made available, and corrected errors." And more.
