Reviews
Plots the company history of working wonders with glass and related materials, and opens up a fascinating world of innovation and the incessant search for the next 'big hit'., ... thoroughly enjoyable reading. Well researched, never too technical, but sufficiently descriptive to appreciate the innovative skills which were the cornerstone of Corning. The book effortlessly weaves its way through the Houghton generations, following the family and its roots, as each generation evolved different strategies to be a part of the future.

Shipping was fast but no tracking and worst packaging ever.. like the box came banged up... send a question to seller never had a reply 😅.... Good product overall, excellent price, fast shipping, wrapped only on 4 sides out of 6, no tracking and never reply... 4★ product / 2★ seller ✌️

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
