Summary: Beware of the Errors
Comment: The book updates many photos from previous editions, and added some new. However, be aware that due to wide scope of the book, it is fairly easy to find incorrect information on pieces, prices, and other data. Certainly better than other editions, but not necessarily a must have for those with older ones. Truncated some interesting information from 2nd edition, and moved prices to back for easier reference. 2 stars for accuracy, 4 stars for breadth, 3 stars for depth. Thus the average rating.

Rating: 3
Summary: Just the pots, please
Comment: I just started collecting Russel Wright dishes, and was looking for a definitive reference guide to help key out the pieces I had. I thought this book had a lot of helpful information about determining pattern and manfacturing locations, but I was a bit disappointed overall. Though the cover of the book features only pottery, the book itself has examples of all that Russel Wright created in his long, prolific career-- all the way down to the radios and lamps. It would be great for the diehard RW fan, but I wished it just focussed on the pottery.

Rating: 5
Summary: An excellent book for any beginning Wright collector
Comment: I am so happy to have gotten this book. I knew little-to-nothing about Wright,and Ann Kerr's book lays out all kinds of information about the man, the artist, and his art. I haven't had much of a problem without an index, as she has all the information chaptered out, and it is all easy to access. The accompanying photos are excellent and there are many. She also explains any areas which may be ambiguous, such as color, size and shape anomalies. Due to getting this book, I often know more about the pieces I find than the dealers do, as she tries to fit in every piece of information that she has, on every aspect of the collectible items. I love this book!
