The Complete Book of Pottery Making

John B. Kenny

Agate is a cryptocrystalline variety of silica, chiefly chalcedony, characterized by its fineness of grain and brightness of color. Although agates may be found in various kinds of rock, they are classically associated with volcanic rocks and can be common in certain metamorphic rocks. Agate is one of the most common materials used in the art of hardstone carving, and has been recovered at a number of ancient sites, indicating its widespread use in the ancient world; for example, archaeological recovery at the Knossos site on Crete illustrates its role in Bronze Age Minoan culture. There are many different kinds of agate - Mexican, Turritella, Greek, Brazilian, Rainbow, Lace, Polyhedroid, Holley Blue and many more - which are used for different things from industrial to art to jewelry.

Editorial Review - Kirkus ReviewsIf the two photographs we've seen are an index, this volume should be a triumph of illustrations over text. Lane has doubled the contents of the 1945 edition of his study and added some amazingly good pictures. His subject is a survey of natural disasters, hurricanes, tornadoes, waterspouts, hail, avalanches, lightning, floods, meteoroids, earthquakes and volcanoes. His massive study is bolstered by voluminous appendices, which help him score in the reference department if not the literary. Lane covers so much ground, so many eruptions of nature over the centuries, that he seldom settles down to any single event in depth. To be sure, Lane has captured some great moments filled with incredible fury and curious facts. Thus, those meteorites we sometimes see above us for a half second on a dark night, their trails blazing for miles, are seldom larger than a grain of rice. Spectacularly in 1833, the sky turned into a circus when a meteor swarm was carried into the earth's path and some 35,000 falling stars fell per hour. (Today, a meteorite explosion could be misinterpreted as a nuclear attack.) The imaginative reader will find himself shrinking away from giant hailstones or hiding from the wind.
