Book excerpt: Representing over 20 years of research, West Virginia Glass Towns documents 460 hot glass manufacturers in the Mountain State, and spanning about 200 years of historic glass production. From bottles to window glass, art glass to practical tableware, it was all made here. Using hundreds of photographs, fire insurance maps, period archival material, advertisements, catalogs and much more, West Virginia Glass Towns tells the rich legacy of West Virginia glass in images and pictures. Here are the faces of men and women who made the glass, the factories, site maps, and a wide variety of other illustrations. Included are small one-person art glass studios and massive international corporations like Owens-Illinois and Corning. If hot glass was made in West Virginia it is represented here. Arranged alphabetically by city, each town begins with a short introductory overview, followed by a chronological listing of factories, dates and products produced, and then a rich diversity of images. It is a priceless tool for students of history and glass, as well as those desiring to understand the complex tapestry of the states past.
