A Complete History of English Clock and Watch Makers - Including an in Depth Encyclopaedia of Watch and Clock Parts

Texte du rabat

English clock and watch makers were at the very forefront of design and manufacture throughout the eighteenth and nineteenth century. This is a fascinating guide to the works of art they created and the men who made them - alongside a glossary of terms connected to horology. Many old works such as this are increasingly hard-to-come-by and expensive, and it is with this in mind that this text is being republished now in an affordable, modern edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on the subject.
