Here is a beautifully designed manual on the basics of warm glass. It’s loaded with clearly written technical information on kilns, tools, supplies, firing, fusing, annealing, sagging, slumping, molding, and finishing. And there’s an extended appendix which includes a helpful “glassery” for definitions of glassworking terms and a list of suppliers. This book also has some of the best illustrations I’ve seen— with hundreds of color photos. It is practically impossible to look at this work and not be inspired to try it yourself. Wow!
