The Ship’s Chronometer
, by Marvin Whitney
Authoritative work on the subject. Treats chronometers from the earliest days to Atomic clocks. Excellent first-hand description of the development of the Hamilton marine chronometers model
21 and model 22
during W.W.II (Whitney was a chronometer maker at the U.S. Naval Observatory). General discussion of the disassembly, cleaning, and oiling of a chronometer. List of chronometer makers in the United States
and Europe.
This book is a comprehensive treatise on ships chronometers. There are 499 pages of scholarly research, profusely illustrated with photos, charts and original, easy-to-understand drawings. A must for the practical watchmaker and for every serious student of these remarkable timepieces. Printed on glossy, heavy stock quality paper.
In my opinion, the best book on the subject!
