About the author

Deming Jarves

1790–1869

An inventive American industrialist, he helped shape the early U.S. glass industry and later turned his curiosity to writing about both manufacturing and art. He is especially remembered for founding the Boston and Sandwich Glass Company and for leaving behind vivid firsthand accounts of glassmaking.
