In the Preface, the author of this book suggests it should be called “Horology for the Hignorant”, and it will certainly help when tackling the repair of a clock or watch for the first time. The book concentrates on clocks and watches with verge, cylinder and lever escapements, from safe dismantling to repair and making new parts, and reassembly. 280 pages. 550 line drawings. Hardbound.
