”Treasured by discriminating collectors for its artistic perfection, English cameo glass is considered by many to be the apex of technical achievement in the field of glass art.  This book, with its 422 color plates, 151 black and white photographs, 78 pages from the price book of Thomas Webb & Sons, and over 800 line drawings from the Sketchbook of George Woodall, - along with its informative text – constitute a truly encyclopedic presentation of the subject.”   

ENGLISH CAMEO GLASS   by Ray and Lee Grover, Crown Publishers Inc., NY, 1980. 

“Only rarely is the collector offered a reference book of such epic proportions…wherein the authors have assembled a genuinely definitive book on all aspects of English cameo glass.”  Among the manufacturers discussed in depth are Benjamin Richardson, Steven & Williams, John Northwood, Thomas Webb & Sons, George Woodall, and more.  Also reviewed in-depth are marks and signatures.  The pictures in this book are stunning and are accompanied by descriptive captions.  The narrative is rich and the information forwarded is most complete.  This book belongs in the permanent reference library of the serious collector, dealer, curator, or historian of cameo art glass objects of art.
