Category: Book Summaries

There are many books on glass and collectibles available and it can be hard to tell which is the right one for you. Although reviews are helpful they do not always give the information you need. My summaries include the main details for the book, such as title, author, publishers, ISBN, etc. but also describe the contents.

I have not included affiliation links, as it’s up to you where to buy the books from.  Personally, I shop around on AbeBooks, eBay and Amazon to find the best price.
