For those of you who have been asking about the book entitled The
Glaze Book, A Visual Catalogue of Decorative Ceramic glazes, here's a
bit more information -- Author is Stephen Murfitt, Publisher is
Thames and Hudson and ISBN # is 0500510431. I work in a Library and
our bibliographer purchased it from one of our British vendors. If
anyone is interested I located this book through Blackwell's UK in
Oxford and they have it in stock.

I have this book. I was really disappointed with the color
reproductions. Mike bailey was a contributor and I mentioned this to
him. He hopes his ^6 reduction book will have better and more accurate
color. The book is very extensive in covering types of glazes but the
photo colors are not good.
