What reading level is Pottery for Artists Craftsmen Teachers book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Of these the chief are : Iron Nickel Cobalt Manganese Copper Antimony Chrome Titanium and the more precious metals, in various forms, as oxides, carbonates, sulphates, and nitrates soluble in the glaze at great heat.
These metals impart the many varied colours found in pottery. Zinc oxide is used to brighten a glaze or to stabilize colour. Tin oxide, which is insoluble at great heat but remains in suspension, gives opacity.
This is no more than a skeleton outline of the in- tricate processes of
...ten used in the fabrication of a glaze. The manifold minerals, metals, oxides, acids, and alkalies are used in a variety of ways by the modern chemical potter.
To all this seeming complication is added the ques- tion of pastes and bodies. There then arises the great problem of fitting one to the other. Salt glaze and porcelain excepted, the finished pot presents three stratas. Outside is the glaze, next the body, then inside the glaze again. If the coefficient of expansion of these three layers differs, in other words, if the glaze does not fit, the result is crazing, that bugbear of the potter.
