Description

From Celestial to Terrestrial Timekeeping by Don Saff

The Bond family devoted everything to providing the international community of astronomers, and the horologists supporting them, with the means and methods for mapping the sky and globe with the most accurate measurements. After years of research and writing, this magnificent new AHS publication traces the Bonds’ contributions to the recording of star time, maintaining accurate time at sea, and time distribution for the New England Railroads following the organization of time zones. This book is distributed in the United States solely by the NAWCC.
