China mending has changed since Echo Evetts wrote this fine book. There is still some useful information but not much. Porcelain repair products are much more varied and widely available today. Epoxies, lacquers, enamels and an airbrush are still the staple, but the names, brands and sources keep changing. Evetts however deserves credit for writing a book that gives more information than most, even though much is obsolete (not Evetts fault). Most repair books are either incomplete (they don't want to tell too much), or obsolete. Some of the recent literature is simply in error. Allan Koskela, restorer.
