"In addition to providing a refresher course on the history of 14
regions, many entries in the 2017 edition of Ceramics in America
focus on black history, discoveries from sites where free blacks
lives, and slave households and slave-trading sites.--Mary C.
Beaudry, Department of Archaeology, Boston University "Maine
Antique Digest"
"This volume, along with the 16 that precede it, is an important
resource for years to come for anyone with an interest in America's
ceramic history. The sheer diversity of ceramic forms and types
that have been uncovered through archaeological research is in
itself compelling, but even more so are the stories of early
American exploration and life teased out by those like Hume and his
colleagues."--Mary C. Beaudry, Department of Archaeology, Boston
University "Antiques and the Arts Online"
"In design and production, in perfect photography and meticulous
scholarship, Ceramics in America sets the standard for research on
material culture in the United States."--Henry Glassie, Department
of Folklore and Ethnomusicology, Indiana University
"With gorgeous illustrations and keen insights from leading ceramic
historians, collectors, and archaeological colleagues, Ceramics in
America is truly the sort of treasure that archaeologists
seek."--Mary C. Beaudry, Department of Archaeology, Boston
