So I'm resending. We were in Albuquerque and spent some time in an
antique shop. I found some great-for-me pottery books. I love the one
with the photos - if it looks like this, here's what you did wrong.

I tried finding a glaze book, but I gave up. I suffered through two
semesters of chemistry in college only because they wouldn't give me a
biology degree unless I did that. What I'm looking for is a sort of
cook book. You want yellow ^04 - do this. You want yellow ^6 - do this.
You want yellow ^10 - do this. I'm sure the chemistry part is
fascinating - but it's all sanskrit to me.

Can anyone recommend a glaze book for the chemistry illiterate? Many
thanks.
