It illustrates the story of the establishment of the United States and highlights the English potters' ability to supply an extraordinary product for this emerging market. It includes pottery that memorializes revolutionary heroes and newly elected presidents; depicts the early 19th-century firefighters of Boston; illustrates the struggle for liberty and the battle to end slavery; and records naval battles and scenes of early American life with hand-painted and transfer-printed images on the smooth shiny glaze of English creamware. Despite political embargoes, declarations of war, and skirmishes on land and sea, British potters were able to provide goods so desirable to the American market that they transcended the frequent hostilities. At every opportunity, sympathetic English potters celebrated and commemorated the American cause." (dj) Contents: The Rising Glory of America / Wendell D.
