About this ebook
This early collection is thoroughly recommended for inclusion on the bookshelf of all horologists. Extensively illustrated with text and full page photographs, its chapters include discussions of: Clockmaking in Wensleydale; Clockmaking in Craven; Clockmaking in Halifax; Clockmaking in York; John Harrison; The Passing of a Craft; A List of Former Yorkshire Makers... among other topics. Many old works such as this are increasingly hard-to-come-by and expensive, and it is with this in mind that this book is being republished now in an affordable, modern edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on the subject.
