Focusing on the rise and decline of Herculaneum pottery in early nineteenth-century Liverpool, this book details its significance in the clay arts and its popularity in North America. Peter Hyland, a noted porcelain collector, explores the pottery's peak from 1800 to 1820, situating it within Liverpool's longstanding pottery tradition. He uncovers the extensive exportation to the U.S. and Canada, while analyzing the competition that led to the factory's closure in 1840. The revised edition features new research and vibrant illustrations, establishing it as the authoritative work on the subject.
