Complete 21st Century Edition. Incorporating and extending the late G H Baillie's definitive work.

Autorentext
The late G.H. Baillie was a consulting engineer who was absorbed by the history and science of horology. He was a pioneer in compiling and publishing facts about past clockmakers and watchmakers. At one time he employed several people to uncover new details about them from various municipal archives, especially in Europe. Brian Loomes is today's best-known and most widely published author in the field of British antique clocks. He has written hundreds of articles and twenty-two books on the subject, including several which are used as standard works for collectors, dealers, museums and researchers throughout the world. A former professional genealogist his familiarity with source material has enabled him to undertake much original research into the lives of former clockmakers. As a dealer in clocks since the mid-1960s, he also has an understanding of the clocks themselves. He lives at Pateley Bridge in the Yorkshire Dales, where he and his wife run a specialist business dealing in antique clocks.
