Finally! Easy-to-follow book solely devoted to Peachblow!

I have just begun to collect peachblow glass and I know very little about it. I bought the most beautiful vase, not knowing what it was other than glass, and decided to learn a bit about the piece in particular.....and then I discovered the wonderful world of peachblow! I picked up info here and there, but began to notice that it was confusing - the types, the companies that made them, the coloration, the imitations and most of all, what the heck defines what is and what isn't "peachblow," "peach blow," "peach bloom..." and so on. I started looking for a book that was informative, yet written so a beginner could comprehend. Voila! I found out about this book and it was a super investment. The pictures are stunning and the captions are helpful. The book is divided into chapters by company/type (i.e. Mt. Washington, Wheeling etc.) and each chapter gives loads of info, pictures, history and the Identification Cards, which plainly set out the characteristics of that particular type. If you collect peachblow or any glass or antiques, or if you just love beautiful art - this book is for you. Since the coloration and pictures are so excellent, it even makes a perfect "coffee table" book! I couldn't be more pleased.
