The Leach Pottery is important, not only because it served as a base for Bernard Leach to put his ideas into practice, but also because it involved a team of workers, jointly sharing their passion for clay. From students, apprentices and professional potters, to clay mixers, kiln firers and pot packers, the Leach Pottery, encouraged, nurtured and trained the art of the potter.

Many of the workers came from distant areas of the world to be a part of the unique pottery. It is fitting that the contribution of these men and women be recognized, and this book rightly acknowledges their role in the tremendous endeavour of the Leach Pottery.
Marion Whybrow has written extensively on the St. Ives Art Colony, its painters, potters and sculptors, past and present. She is married to Terry Whybrow.
