The book provides a comprehensive account of Wedgwood's life, work, and achievements, tracing his career from his early beginnings as an apprentice potter to his rise as a successful businessman and innovator in the field of ceramics.Church's book explores Wedgwood's many innovations in pottery design and production, including his development of new techniques for creating fine porcelain and his use of new materials and glazes to create beautiful and durable pieces. The book also delves into Wedgwood's personal life, including his relationships with his family, friends, and business partners, and his involvement in the social and political issues of his time.Throughout the book, Church provides vivid descriptions of Wedgwood's creations, including his famous jasperware pieces, which were highly sought after by collectors and patrons of the arts. The book also includes numerous illustrations and photographs of Wedgwood's work, as well as portraits and other images of the man himself.Overall, Josiah Wedgwood: Master Potter (1903) is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in the history of ceramics, the life and work of Josiah Wedgwood, or the broader social and cultural context of 18th-century Britain.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
