Summary:

"The purpose of this book is to provide the general public with an up-to-date account of the pottery tradition of the Casas Grandes Valley. So much has happened in the last few years, we felt a book would be of immense value to scholars, collectors, dealers, students and anyone intrigued by the pottery of the Southwest and its exciting metamorphosis during the past century."--Preface.

"El propósito de escribir este libro es para suministrarle al público un relato corriente de la tradición de la cerámica del valle de Casas Grandes. Tanto ha sucedido durante los últimos años que creíamos que un libro les valdría mucho a los sabios, los coleccionistas, los comerciantes, los estudiantes, y a cualquiera persona que estuviera intrigada por la cerámica del suroeste y la metamórfosis emocionante que la afectó durante el siglo pasado."--Prólogo.
