About the Author

Rupert Thomas Gould was born in Portsmouth in 1890. He joined the Royal Navy at sixteen but was invalided out in 1915. His passionate interest in all things mechanical led to his lifelong obsession with the Harrison's chronometers at Greenwich on which he spent thirteen years restoring and repairing. He was a prolific author writing on such diverse subjects as the Loch Ness monster and captain Bligh. He died in 1948.
