Good review of McCoy products. Does not give much history of the process of making McCoy products and illustrations of this aspect are inexplicably shown as untrimmed photographs of photographs on stands or in scrapbooks. Illustrations of the McCoy pottery are good, and production dates are good. Pretty book, but lacks depth of history.
