520			_a"The Potter's Craft: A Practical Guide for the Studio and Workshop" by Charles F. Binns is a practical guide on pottery techniques and craftsmanship, likely written in the early 20th century. This comprehensive work focuses on teaching pottery as both a scientific and artistic endeavor, aimed at helping students and artisans develop their skills in creating ceramic art. The opening of the book features the author's prefaces to both the first and second editions, in which he reflects on his extensive experience in ceramics and acknowledges the evolving appreciation for craftsmanship over machine-made products. Binns emphasizes the importance of personal expression in the arts and outlines the book's intention to provide a foundation for individual experimentation rather than a strict didactic approach. He illustrates the dichotomy between mass-produced items and those crafted by skilled artisans, setting the tone for a thoughtful exploration of pottery methods and philosophies in the chapters to follow.
