4.0 out of 5 stars For students of Peruvian culture, ceramics or interior desig, March 19, 2001
I am continually impressed by the outstanding layout, photos and supportive text that the Fowler Museum of Cultural History produces; and this wonderfully enlightening book, Ceramics of Ancient Peru, is no exception.

Dr. Donnan takes you on a chronological journey from the Ancient Peruvian ceramic techniques (1800 B.C.) through the Florescent Period (period of ceramics in the Moche Kingdom 100 B.C.-700 AD) to end with the Inca and Colonial period (1430 - 1660 AD). For those that are students of Peruvian culture, ceramics or interior decorating, this book will be a prized possession. Recommended

5.0 out of 5 stars Professor Donnan is a Layman's Dream, June 6, 2003
Aside from research, Professor Donnan very simply knows how to tell his story and how to present it. That this book is out of print is a crime. If you love artifacts, beg, borrow or...well, I can't advise that, but I'm thinking it.
