This book is often referred to as the best on the market. Yes and no. True, it is the most professionally written book on mold making. However, if you are looking for technical instruction, this is not the book. I realize that definitive information about mold making is not acquired through any one single book. Yet, having read this book years ago in art school, I was not able to translate any of the information into practical use. The processes illustrated are industrial with zero creative applications. It is obvious that Frith is a master mold maker, but it is my opinion that he has forgotten what a beginner needs to know. Overall, the techniques shown (production pottery) are limited but depending on your background, perhaps some of the processes might be eye opening.
