Immediate dispatch from Somerset. Nice book in great condition. Pages in excellent condition. Hardcover. English. See images for condition. About the book >.>.> Each volume although part of the set is complete in itself with its own bibliography and index. A narrative history of the development of each class of instrument included in the collection has been pro-vided since no general synthesis of the history of time-measuring in struments seems to exist in English. These sections, therefore, may be read continuously as an introduction to the subject. Descriptions of individual items in the collection are arranged as nearly as pos sible in chronological order. Where there are several items of the same date, they are arranged in alphabetical order of the maker's name (if known) or that of the region of origin. Technical details are then given in the following order. (MP).

Shipping terms
At West Cove UK, we take pride in dispatching your orders promptly. We send out parcels the same day on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays if ordered before 11:00am. We don’t dispatch on Mondays, Fridays, or weekends, except during busy periods, but we’ll always make sure your order is on its way as soon as possible.
We use tailored shipping templates to calculate costs for different countries. While shipping costs are generally accurate, if you notice a quote that seems too high, please contact us, we’ll happily review and adjust the price if possible.

We always use tracked services for both oversea and domestic delivery.
