I am happy that the long expected Biography of Rupert Gould, describing in some detail his struggle to restore the great Harrison Seaclocks (And the rest of his life) is getting closer to publication.
Author Jonathan Betts, Curator of Horology at Greewich, reportedly has submitted his first draft to Oxford University Press recently. Given Jonathans in depth knowlege (and understanding) of the subject this promises to be an exciting book.
Let us keep our fingers crossed and hope for a speedy editing process.
