"This handsome little publication is well-illustrated throughout This book will make a welcome and appealing addition to the library of anyone with an interest in ceramics."
"Best Book (for now, anyway) About Talavera" according to Joel Marcus Johnson. This is the show book for a 1999 exhibition organized by the Museo Bello in Puebla, Mexico, and by The Americas Society and The Hispanic Society of America, both of New York City, in which the treasures of the former and those of Museo Franz Meyer of Mexico City were displayed. It's as academic as it is entertaining, and is in English and Spanish with superb photographs. For anyone who would be a collector, this is the bo. "Regret purchase" according to Kelly A, Davis. Very overpriced and I didn't realize what a small and thin book it really is. I regret buying it .Not much information either.
