Best bottle guide

[Stoadie]

Hi All,

Wondering if I can get some guidance on the best books to help with educating one on U. S. antique bottles of New England and the East coast. I'd like info on the different ways bottles were made pre-1900s as well as variants of common bottles and rarer bottles to keep an eye out for. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks, Sarah
