This complete catalogue of the English and Irish delftware in the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge, reveals much that is beautiful and unusual.
The greater part of the collection was bequeathed by Dr J.
Glaisher in 1928, and much of it is little known.
A detailed publication has long been overdue, and this book illustrates 588 items in colour, many with multiple views.
