Watchmaking
No complete textbook has previously been written and one of the most interesting aspects of George Daniels' work, which this book describes, is that he makes every component of the watch himself. The making of the precision timekeeper is described, step-by-step, and is illustrated at each stage with line drawings and brief explanatory captions.
