The book explores the significance of Herculaneum pottery, which emerged in early nineteenth-century Liverpool and gained popularity in North America. Peter Hyland details its brief period of prominence from 1800 to 1820, situating it within the broader Liverpool pottery tradition. He examines export records to highlight the dependency of the U.S. and Canada on Herculaneum's fine wares and analyzes the factors leading to the factory's closure in 1840 due to competition. Enhanced by new research and full-color illustrations, this edition serves as the definitive resource on Herculaneum pottery.
