ILLUSTRATED LONGITUDE
by Dava Sobel and W.J.H. Andrewes
When Longitude was published in 1995 to universal acclaim, readers voiced only one regret: that it was not illustrated. Now 178 portraits, maps, diagrams, and photographs of scientific instruments, especially Harrison’s clocks accompany the original narrative of Longitude. The elegant captions emphasize the scientific and historical events surrounding the images, and tell their own dramatic story of longitude, paralleling and illuminating Dava Sobel’s memorable tale. SC, 1998. 240 pgs. SW 3 lbs
