Summary
"Edward Drummond Libbey changed the glass industry with his automatic bottle-making and sheet glass machines. This work examines Libbey's career, particularly his innovation of American flint cut glass, contributions to the middle-class American table through affordable glassware, and his art glass and painting collections, which eventually formed the basis for Toledo Museum of Art's collection"--Provided by publisher.
