Rigorous, precise research spins the text of this book into a romantic idyl with its pleasant, easy-going and almost carefree description of earthenware craftsmanship. On its pages, an attractive, human narrative collates what is of scientific interest to the anecdotes and illustrations of a lifestyle and epoch on the brink of disappearing.
Although the authors, headed by the internationally-recognized José María Cruxent, have given a very detailed account to actualize a "preliminary study", a point of departure for future research, their narration is so minutely detailed that it would be difficult to investigate this subject further in depth. In the publisher's opinion, this important book will serve as a sound basis for further scientific study as well as provide a source of reference for beginning ceramists.

Fruto de una rigurosa y exacta investigación el texto de este libro se vuelve a veces romantico con la descripción idilica y casi casual sobre los objetos utilitarios y decorativos de la Loza Falconiana y de su tradicción a punto de desaparecer.
Aunque los autores, y en particular el internacionalmente reconocido geólogo José María Cruxent, nos presentan un excelente "estudio preliminar" punto de partida para futuras investigaciones a pesar de que sus descripciones son tan minuciosamente detalladas que, a nuestro entender, será dificil investigar este tema ulteriormente en profundidad. Según el criterio del editor, este libro puede servir a los entendidos en la materia para sus investigaciones y ofrece una abundante fuente de referencias cientificas.
