History of the Staffordshire Potteries and the Rise and Process of the Manufacture of Pottery and Porcelain - with Preferences to Genuine Specimens and Notices of Eminent Potters Simeon Shaw

About five miles North west, and five miles South east of Newcastle - Under - Lyme are the two extremities of that interesting and opulent district named The Potteries. Originally published in 1900 this is a fascinating read for any historian. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original artwork and text.
