Illustrated with 122 photographs, Akaboshi and Nakamaru provide an engaging and a valuable introduction to a striking genre of pottery still largely unknown in the Western world. In addition to tracing the history of the Yi-dynasty wares, they provide, in an extensive section of commentaries on the photographs, a wealth of information for both the layman and the connoisseur.
